This is me. One million percent. I'd stay up till 2 am and sleep in till noon. Every. Single. Day. If....I didn't have the littles to be responsible for. So, in reality, I stay up entirely too late every night and drag my ass out of bed before the bus comes, in a pissy mood. I don't like mornings, and I'm pretty sure they don't like me.
For some really weird reason, I get super motivated to do stuff when my husband has to travel. Like all these ideas suddenly flood into my crazy head, and I start frequenting Hobby Lobby and Lowe's. A lot. Don't get me wrong, we get a shit ton of cool stuff done when he's home. But, when he's here, I'd rather just hang out with him and stare at his hotness. I'm really not even joking a little bit. So, today, the motivation began with this....
I had the genius idea of making breakfast food and freezing it. Yeah, someone else has had this idea before, duh. But, there's something else important about me. I'm cheap. Yeah, NOT like that. Jeeze. Anyhow, here's my little plan of how to make 12 breakfast sandwiches for about $8. In the freezer, ready to go, 45 seconds in the microwave goodness that will make me about 5% less cranky about making the littles breakfast in the morning.
One more disclosure. I'm a photographer, but my phone on my Android is, well, easier for this kind of thing. And a hell of a lot cheaper if I bust it. So, no hating on my "tutorial" snaps.
INGREDIENTS
1 dozen eggs {$1.79}
2 packages sausage patties {$5.38}
2 packages english muffins {$2.50}
Cheese slices {$dunno. already had em}
The wine in the background is optional, yet necessary if you have children.
Crack the eggs into a muffin tin (lightly sprayed with cooking spray). Um awesome!!
Scramble the eggs up some. They look cool, anyways.
Pop them in the oven on 375ish for 15ish minutes.
Separate and toast the english muffins a little bit.
Cook the sausage on your stovetop. Uh, I don't really know the right way to do this. Like 10 minutes or so and your kids will probably be free from food poisoning...
Add the cheese on one half of the english muffins...like 1/2 a slice per.
Add the sausage and eggs and then smash the whole thing together. Maybe smashing is optional. But I have pent up aggression some days. This helped.
Wrap em up in foil, throw them in big zip lock bags, label them. Yes. Mine are labeled with instructions/threats. If it's going to happen, it'll happen in this house. Trust me....
Yup, that's Skittles Vodka in our freezer. Cause we're raging alcoholics. I think one shot has been used from this bottle. And I loathe green and yellow Skittles anyhow....
So there you have it. 20 minutes today. 5% less bitch tomorrow morning. Worthwhile if you ask me.
