Breakfast Burritos in Bulk
A co-worker found this recipe via a friend and said her family of 9 all loved them. I haven't tried them yet but I am going to. I am also going to peruse this blog and see what I can learn. I saw some interesting things during the hunt for the recipe. Check it out.

Upon further notice, I found a later post with a variation to the above recipe.
Breakfast Burritos
A while back, I mentioned a early, less healthy form of this recipe. Here’s what I’m currently using:
2 pounds of cured smoked sausage, cubed or 2 pounds of soyrizo (the last batch I did was a pound of each)
4 medium onions, diced
2 bell peppers, diced
2 tomatoes, diced
2 pounds of shredded cheese (fat free cheese works just fine for this, or you can skip it)
16 eggs
32 big flour tortillas (10″ ones work well)
1 jar of picante sauce
Saran wrap or Ziploc freezer bags (for packing)
Cut up the meat and vegetables and split it into four separate equal batches. Crack all sixteen eggs, blend them so the yolk is even, then separate this into four equal batches. Saute a batch of meat and veggies for about ten minutes (if you’re using soyrizo, you may want to cook it just a bit first before the veggies), then add a batch of the eggs and stir regularly until the eggs are cooked. Each small batch here makes eight burritos, so spoon some of the egg/veggie/meat mix onto a tortilla shell, put some cheese and a bit of picante sauce on top, then fold it up and wrap it in Saran wrap. Toss the finished burritos in the freezer. I can make 32 burritos in about an hour and a half following this process.
When you pull out a burrito, unwrap it, put it on a saucer, and microwave it for about two minutes from frozen.
Now, back to my show.
I saw some other recipes as well that looked worthy of a second take.
As you may have heard, our volcano erupted twice during the night and so far we are in the clear of any fallout, as it appears to be all heading north. We will stay tuned. Gabby is very anti-mask!
Have a great day. It looks like we are all getting some snow this week.

What I did today...
This morning I went out to look for a nice comfortable pair of black dress shoes to wear with dark suits and clothing that will give me an air of quiet dignity and understated classiness while attending funerals, church meetings, work and other must do's. I didn't really find anything that screamed at me...except for these little cuties!!! Now we're talkin'. I justified the purchase with the fact that I will be able to wear them in about three more months...and besides, if I don't get them now, they may sell out of my size, which happens to me a lot. So, yeah. My feet love me the most!
I am finally getting around to posting my second knitting project, Gabby refused to model it for me as well, so here it is. It can be worn plain, or with the ribbing turned up. I will be making more of these in some fun colors.
Found this fabric I've been saving for a baby boy quilt. Anyone having a baby boy soon?
The lady at the yarn store convinced me that because I have knitted two simple items, I am fully qualified to make socks. Personally, I think she vastly overrates my knitting skills, but I have the tools anyway. Stay turned for completed project...coming soon to some feet near you.
I picked up this cotton from Wal-mart to make some dish cloths. I heard you could make them in your sleep. Or while watching TV, which is the same thing.
So, I have plans for the future. Thanks for all the inspiration.

Jenny and Ed are the best parents ever! They tolerate and accommodate the constant nagging of the grandparents for updated photos of the kids and their ongoing journey through life on planet earth. This week the trip got a little easier with the help of wheels! Here's what people in warm climates do to celebrate spring - a nice warm sunny bike ride through Provo. Aren't they the cutest ever?
Ethan getting the hang of it.
Ed says they are riding full time from sun up to sun down!
Princess Savannah!
I hope they don't wear them out before July when Grandma arrives!

Next Project Please?
I just finished my second knitting project - a cute little rib knit stocking cap that my wonderful sister-in-law Joan helped me start while on vacation. What next? I'm thinking mittens or fingerless gloves, but working with those double pointed needles near the end of my little hat just about made me crazy. I assume we get used to that? I hope so. I did find some nice little videos online to show me how to use those. My goal is to work my way up to socks but I don't think I'm quite there yet. Maybe booties or baby socks. There is so much to choose from so I welcome suggestions.
