Quick and Easy Breakfast Recipe: Breakfast Baked Potatoes

Here is a new spin on breakfast that's wonderfully simple.  You can leave the potatoes to cook as you get dressed for the day, while the eggs and sausage fry up quickly once it's about time to eat.  To save even more time in the morning, you can have all the ingredients pre-cooked the night before, and then just reheat everything the morning.








Breakfast Baked Potatoes


Ingredients:

4 large potatoes
4 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
dash of pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 pound ground pork sausage
shredded cheese, sour cream, and minced onion if desired for topping

1.  Scrub potatoes well and prick all over with a fork.  Bake at 400 degrees F for 45 minutes, or until tender.

2.  Meanwhile, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.  Melt the 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat.  Add the eggs and cook as for scrambled eggs.

3.  In another pan, fry the ground pork sausage until cooked through.

4.  To serve, cut each potato open and fill with egg and sausage.  Top with shredded cheese, sour cream, and onions.

Soapmakers: Why You Shouldn't Use Vinegar if You Come into Contact with Lye

It was one of the first things I learned when I began making my own soap; I read it in books and on the internet: "Always keep a jug of vinegar on hand when you are working with lye.  Vinegar neutralizes lye." Soapers, have you heard this?  Do you practice the habit of keeping vinegar nearby when you make your soaps?  So did I, until recently, when I read an interesting post on a soap forum, and then decided to research the claim myself.

My Experience Using Homemade Baby Formula: It Is Possible!

I wanted to exclusively breastfeed my twins, I really did. And I thought I could.  While I was pregnant, I read books and articles all emphasizing the fact that the more milk you express, the more milk you will make, so there is no reason a mom shouldn't be able to feed twins or even triplets exclusively on breast milk.  For whatever reason, however, my boobies didn't quite understand this theory.  My babies were feeding constantly, but never seemed to get full.  And worse, they were barely gaining any weight.  I was starting to get very worried about my Baby Girl and Little Man. My pediatrician at the time was absolutely no help.  I was told that I needed to offer them the breast more frequently, though I'm not sure how that was possible since I was already constantly feeding them--seriously, I couldn't even go to the bathroom without them screaming because my boob wasn't in their mouth.  I was also told that they weren't latching on correc
