I hate knowing I won't be able to see Mr. King for a few days, but the safety and well being of my little lady is what's important.
I never had a sister but I have some of the most amazing ladies as my best friends. I moved to a new house in the middle of fifth grade, and was allowed to finish up the year in the school I was attending. The first day of sixth grade was terrifying for me. I was going into a middle school where I knew no one. On that bus ride on day one of my new school, I met my very first, very best friend. In the next four years I would meet the rest of my forever friends. We got into a lot of trouble together. They were my partners in crime, a shoulder to lean on, an ear to listen to, literally my everything. We have been on the highest of highs together, and the lowest of lows. They are the people who I can call at the drop of a dime and I know that they would be there. It's funny the things you realize as you grow up. I have had a lot of in-and-out friends but the ones who have stayed, they have my heart. (Quality over quantity)
Grammy A's is the one home that has stayed the same over the years. We have had cheerleading sleepovers, sailing meetings, graduation parties, prom parties and so much more in this home.
When Mr. King went back to work, H was a little over a year old. Child care is so expensive and she went 3-4 days a week. My dear friend Hanna stepped up and helped out so much. She would take H for a day or two at a time. Hanna, Grammie A, and H would have sleepovers and adventures. They are two of the people I trust my little lady's life with. And that is saying a lot. Mr. King and I are pretty strict on who watches H and we both trust them more than anyone.
So when the talk of this three day long snowstorm came up, I knew we weren't going to be able to stay at our home. The one place I feel comfortable in, besides my own home is Grammie A's. To me she's, mamma. She loves more than anyone I know. And I love how much H loves her. Literally warms my heart. So I sit here with the wind blowing, snow adding up, snuggled with grammie A and my little H. Couldn't think of a better way to wait out this storm.
Before we left for our snow-venture yesterday, I attempted to make Mr. King some breakfast in bed. He is pretty amazing in every way. Even when things seem to fall apart, he stays strong for us. So I wanted to treat him and let him rest. But he woke up so breakfast in bed, turned into breakfast.
I tried to use up all the veggies in case we lost power, didn't want good veggies to go to waste. So another brunchbowl it is. Literally my new favorite meal. You can throw whatever you have on hand, add scrambies, sriracha and bam you havea delicious nutritious meal.
In this bowl I added,
Leeks, garlic, broccoli, carrots, squash, bell peppers, corn, edamame, kale, sundried and fresh tomatoes, basil, chicken sausage, and of course cheesy, sriracha scrambled eggs. To top it off I made crispy red bliss tomato hash browns. Yum on yum.
Buying purple carrots, has really turned H into a carrot lover
Stay safe and warm
