I can’t see it, but I know it’s out there. Somewhere the sun is clawing through the darkness. It will announce its presence with burst of wonderful color.
Down below, many of us will miss it, caught in the rush of life. Are the kids ready? Do I have my school assignment ready? Am I forgetting anything for that presentation?
I’ll just stop and grab something to eat somewhere.
Stop!
Take a moment and take the time to cook. I know I have another long day ahead of me. I need a breakfast that will last. A carb-filled fiasco handed stuffed in a paper sack isn’t going to do the trick.
I toss some butter in a pan and put about a third of a chopped onion on it. I follow that with a chopped jalapeño. I scrambled three eggs while the onion, peppers sautéed. I tossed in a quarter cup of some leftover, diced ham and poured in the eggs.
When it was done, I topped it off with a little bit of sour cream, some cheese, and a dot of hot sauce for some extra color.
In all it took about twenty minutes, and I am sure was less costly than anything I could have picked up on the way to work.
