What We Had For...

Dinner Breakfast.


Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter, melted
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
8 slices Texas toast

Blueberry Sauce:
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
2 tbsp. thawed orange juice concentrate


Directions:

1. Pour melted butter on a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan; lift and tilt pan to coat bottom evenly. In a large shallow bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla and nutmeg. 


2. Dip both sides of Texas toast into egg mixture; place on prepared pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. 

3. For sauce, in a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Stir in blueberries and orange juice concentrate. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. 


4. Serve with French toast. 


Oh, and in case you didn't notice from the pics, I added some strawberries to make it a bit more festive for the 4th. 

You know what else was festive? Our pinterest-ified outfits. 


I can't even take credit for this one guys. My non-blogging roomie got the idea for these fantastic shorts. 

We got some other cute pics from the day, thanks to self timer. 






And some more self timer pics:





And for your viewing pleasure, the "Just Keep Jumping" series:








Now is the time where I should show the final, amazing jumping picture that we captured. 

And I would. 

If we finally got one. 

Which we did not. 

Regardless, we had ourselves a wonderful holiday, gloomy weather and all. 

Happy Friday!!
