Breakfast from the future

Cooking in the olden days...my mom with Millie and Ginny

In the olden days of my youth, there was no Harry Potter. There was no Internet, no Youtube, no Crocs, no Legoland in American and no such thing as an "app for that."

Life pre-Google...Millie, me, Angela, Will, Dave and Ginny

AND we had to make white sauce on the stove. Which took FOREVER (aka, at least 8 minutes) and you had to stir the whole time so it didn't burn. Now, we can just make it in the microwave in 2 minutes. That means a family favorite, creamed eggs on toast, is super quick to make in the morning. Life in the future is SO wonderful!

Creamed Eggs on Toast

1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1 tablespoon plain flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
4 hard boiled eggs
Jam and pepper (optional)

Combine milk, butter, flour and salt in microwaveable container. Cook on high for 2-4 minutes, stirring every minute until it bubbles up and thickens. Stir in boiled eggs and serve over toast.

Note: an audiobooks is not required for this recipe but I find it adds that something *extra*. For breakfast cooking, I'd recommend The Olivia Series read by Dame Edna - a fantastic character who HAS been around since my youth.
