Sometimes, even I need to take a day off from cooking.
It was a much welcomed break when my husband and the kiddo decided it was a good time for them to make me breakfast.
So, my husband decided it was a good time for him to teach kiddo how to make his big fancy omelet.
This was our breakfast before our long, hard day of canning pickles. It sure filled us up.

August 31, 2013 at 4:13 pmThis really does look good! Just curious, have you tried Italian or Polish sausage for the sausage. I think really any breakfast sausage or dinner sausage could work.

October 14, 2014 at 5:50 pmWhen I first looked at the picture I thought it was a quiche-which is actually a compliment. I love quiche-but I also love omelets! This one I know I would want to dive right into and gobble it all up.
