Monday morning. Well the weather is still a little unstable and overcast. When we packed up our tent from the craft’s fair on Saturday, it was still wet from the rain. We really wanted to lay it out today to dry out but we are somewhat skeptical about whether it will dry out or just get rained on. Maybe we’ll try again tomorrow.

I got to have my favorite breakfast sausages today. They come from Whole Foods and are simply called “Pork Breakfast Sausage”. I just love the flavor they have. Next was the eggs. We are having scrambled eggs today with spinach and scallops. Yup, scallops in the eggs. Last night when we had soup, we thawed out some scallops to cut up into the soup. There were two leftover that we didn’t use so I used them up in the eggs. I cooked the scallops in the sausage pan while they were cooking. Then I sauteed up some spinach added the eggs, chopped scallops and of coarse some cheese. Sounds like a good day for a piece of toast with coconut oil and honey.

After cleaning the kitchen, I went to work for a few hours. Today we need to leave the house around 5pm as Melissa is coming in. We never did unpack the car from the craft’s fair so we still have to do that. We decided that we would unpack the car after lunch. For lunch we had a couple of small fillets and some yummy green beans. We had a little garlic ghee leftover from the lobster yesterday so I put some of that on the beans along with a little salt and pepper. Simple perfection. Then Randy remembered we had a couple of bites of lobster left and what do you know – another surf and turf. For dessert we had a little cheesecake with some fresh blackberries.

One of the things that Melissa requested upon her arrival was to go to A Saigon Cafe for dinner. While there we enjoyed the shrimp wontons, green papaya salad, and chicken roll your own burritos. Our kind waiter treated us to some coconut tapioca for dessert. Now, being completely stuffed, it is time to go home and rest up for tomorrow.
