Happy Friday!!! I decided not to run today to keep my legs fresh for tomorrows loooooong run.
Last night I was contemplating dessert when I realized the peaches I bought are not sweet, but were going bad. I decided to cook up an impromptu peach cobbler.
But since I am not a butcher, baker or candle stick maker I just made it up.
1. I cut up the peaches and layered them on the bottom of a pie pan sprinkled with brown sugar.
2. I made a batter out of: 1/3c melted butter, 1/3c brown sugar, 1 egg, 1/2c flour (add more to thicken to batter), dash cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda. Mixed and poured on top.
3. Then, I baked it at 350 for 20 minutes. And Bob’s your uncle.I have a strict policy that fruit is NOT dessert. So this was just a snack
This morning I am planning on hitting the gym for some strength stuff. So, I ate breakfast first. It was probably all that peach cobbler I ate last night, but I was not feeling pancakes this morning?!
I made an egg patty in the microwave with toast.
Added egg patty tip – put a mug of water in the microwave with the egg. This helps steam it so it doesn’t dry out or get too rubbery.
I have another doctor’s appointment today because that thing on my foot never really went away. It’s near my mom’s so I’m trekking down there after the gym.
Question: What’s one thing you’re doing today to make it a Fantastic Friday?!
Me: I’m going to call my BFF. (Answer the phone Cin!)

Finally, a way to make the egg patty not “pop”! I always would cook it for 30 sec, swirl it, and cook it again until done- aka I heard a “pop”!
Jenn says
How did you even figure that out about the egg patty and the water?! haha that made me smile. LOTS of experimentation I see 🙂
Gregory Despain says

Fruit definitely does not equal dessert. Unless chocolate is involved. Especially white chocolate… 🙂

You could definitely see your skills within the paintings you write. My wedding. The arena hopes for even more passionate writers like you who are not afraid to mention how they believe. At all times follow your heart.

Hay, if you ever want to mix it up, egg sam-wich wise…
Spray some pam in a small bowl.
Crack egg into bowl.
Stab yolk with fork (so it doesn’t blow up).
Stick in microve, covered with a paper towel, for 30 seconds (if you like it all oozy like me).
When the bell dings, slap a piece of cheese on real quick and cover it up with the paper towel.
All the while your bread has been crisping up in the toaster, of course..
Put the cheese, eggs, and bread away to stall while the cheese gets melty…
Slide egg and melty cheese onto toasty bread. Oozy egg and cheese sam-wich!
This takes 2 minutes if you do it like an olympian 🙂

Thanks for the egg patty tip! I’ll use that. 🙂
Tonight after work I’m meeting a friend for drinks; I’m pretty psyched about that. It’s the simple things in life.
Carla @ write-foot-forward.com says
Lunch with my mom and drinks with a friend after work! Got my run out of the way this morning, so I can enjoy a relaxing Friday evening!
That’s about how I make cobblers and crisps too. It’s getting on apple season up here in the north, so crisps are definitely on the radar 🙂
runeatrepeat says
I want to have lunch with my mom!
Mary says
I had NO idea that you could do that with an egg to make it not taste like a rubber band!!! I’ll have to try that next time!
Since we’re supposed to get hit by Irene this weekend, I am definitely NOT going to the beach but rather I just got back from the grocery store where not a piece of bread or bottle of water was in sight.
Sarah @ Sarah's Modern Bites says
Frisbee!!!! With adult drinks in Vitamin Water bottles near Harvard Square. Can’t wait!!! 😀
runeatrepeat says
Adult drinks in Vita water bottles is genius!!!
Alexa @ Simple Eats says
I completely agree with you…fruit is NOT dessert!

Tomorrow’s my stepson’s fourth birthday so today is a mad rush to get his birthday cake done, bike finally put together, and prep all the food for tomorrow’s party. I’m tired already and it’s only 10:15am Cali time.

Me and the boyfriend are headed to the Ranger’s game tonight and I’m going to treat him to a delicious dinner of ballpark food 🙂
Becky @ cityrunnergirl says
going to pick up my bronx half marathon swag (even though the race is cancelled) 🙁
Kelly @ Not So Rocky Road says
Picking up our race packets so we at least get our swag if Irene causes it to get cancelled. I don’t think that will happen, so it should be an awesome race!!

On friday’s my youngest daughter and I go dumpster diving at the recycling center for coupons. Its like an easter egg hunt for free gum and bbq sauce!
Lindsey says
Wearing men’s deodorant. I kid you not. Old Spice Fiji is where it’s at. I get distracted by how good it smells. (Please don’t judge me 🙂 )
