As the fella works on Saturdays our weekends begin on Saturday evening. This weekend I decided to start it off in the best way possible... breakfast for dinner. Awesome because 1. it's delicious and 2. we have the leftovers for a yummy brunch on Sunday, which means I dont have to make breakfast.
I stole Karen's amazing breakfast casserole recipe but tweaked it just a little bit. When we were in Grand Haven last visiting Karen and her hippie (aka her husband Kevin) she made this casserole for us using sausage, and it was delish. So we cooked up some potatoes, sausage, and green peppers and then added in tomato and green onions as well.
OH. MY. GOD
So good. So So good. And really easy. We already have a list of different ways we want to try it, and it's definitely going to be a staple for when we have company.
The good food of course needed to be followed by some weekend cocktails so we headed over to The Mayfair, which is in a small town 15 minutes or so right outside of the city. A nice little pub, had there not been a DJ spinning horrible club music. I heard more Nelly than I would have thought possible, but I think on a week night (with no DJ) it'd be a fun place for a few drinks. There's a patio on the roof that overlooks Lake Lansing, that alone deserves a second go in my opinion.
Scooter was of course super happy to see us home early (you can only handle so much Nelly in one night), and was glued to his dad's side for the rest of night. Is he not the cutest thing ever? He may have the breath of a compost pile, and destroy furniture by climbing all over it (exhibit A: the couch cushion behind Dean) but he's my favorite little greybeard.
Sunday turned out to be the laziest day ever, but sometimes you just need to stay in bed until noon...right???
Hope everybody had a grand weekend, and maybe were a little more productive than we were.
Until next time.
