Puff Pastry to toast and back

A roll of puff pastry is a beautiful thing when you're not afraid to dowse it in a liquid fat.  I used my silicone pampered chef pastry brush to Picasso our paper thin layers with olive oil before spreading my spinach cheese mixture over it a la one layer lasagna.  Then another 5 layers of the pastry.

Today I carefully placed farm fresh eggs into the center of pan fried whole wheat toast.  I caught that idea on the movie Vendeta.  The entire family enjoyed their bull's eye toast with ham very much.

For lunch I toasted up some bread to house my chicken pot pie mixture.  I remember dad calling his creamy mushroom and meat mixture on toast, "s___ on a tin roof."  But the kids don't need to know that.

The goal of fattening up the family was furthered by my cookie production yesterday.  Chocolate chip with walnuts, and whoopie pies are done.

In the garden, the potatoes are doing well.  The lettuce and carrots are promising.  The green been and pepper seedlings are almost ready to be planted.

Our baby has accepted bananas, barley, bannanas, rice and sweet potatoes with no problem.  He gave me a special look this morning when I presented green beans for the first time, but by lunch he was gumming it down with gusto!
