Busy Mommy: An Iowa Mom Blog - StumbleUpon. Baked Egg Boat recipe. Breakfast is my favorite meal.

Baked Egg Boat recipe

I like to drink iced coffee and watch the cream climb its way down the chunky ice cubes in a dazy before the caffeine hits. I like to order bacon with whatever I’m eating.

Double Banana Sandwich. Idaho Nachos Recipe. When growing up, I would pretty much ride my skateboard, or whatever bicycle I picked up outside of Goodwill, everywhere.

Idaho Nachos Recipe

I would ride a skateboard often times fifteen miles a day, if not more. I would bike to another town, strapping my skateboard across my back, only to skate on someone’s skateboard ramp all day, then head back only to make it home for dinner.

It’s way cooler than those cups of neon liquid that end up all over your clothes, your furniture and your hands plus it gives you an excuse to rid a man’s closet of ugly ties.

Here’s the run-down: You need 100% silk for this to work. I try to find an assortment of colors and patterns. Usually it will tell you if it’s 100% silk right on the main label of the tie, but a lot of them don’t, and if that’s the case, check that little tiny end, it’s usually hiding there. The first step is to deconstruct the tie. Next you cut a piece large enough to cover an egg. Now, notice how I tied the eggs in the above photo- with the tie on the top of the long side of the egg.
