Good afternoon. Happy Saturday. Hope you are staying warm.

Although I  enjoyed my Christmas and New Year’s with my family – it wasn’t without some not so fun times.  I’ve been sick since the Monday before Christmas.  I thought it was just a bad cold but it gradually got worse.  I finally went to the Doctor’s on Thursday (they squeezed me in – thank goodness) before the big storm.  I have a bacterial infection and I’m on the mend thanks to the zip pack I was given.  I’m actually getting some energy back. (Yeah!)

I’ve been laying low – getting rest, drinking lots of liquids and even eating soup.  I’ve missed working out (I’ve gotten a few walks in) and hope to get back on track on Monday.

Last weekend I dusted off a simple, favorite breakfast from my childhood.  Soft boiled eggs!  I did a couple of google searches on the timing – as although I like my eggs over easy – I like my soft boiled eggs really an in between version of hard / soft boiled eggs.

Here is my recipe:

• 2 – 3 room temperature eggs
• bring a pot of water on high to a slow boil
• add the room temperature eggs to the water
• set timer to 6 minutes (while eggs are cooking – toast you favorite bread or english muffins)
• once timer goes off take pot off of the burner – add cool water
• quickly peel eggs
• chop up eggs in a bowl – salt and pepper to taste
• Serve with buttered toast or english muffins

Enjoy!
