About Me

My photo
My name is Jo and I am a single parent. I have two young boys aged 4 and 3. I'm starting this blog in order to keep myself sane and to share my experiences as a single parent. My oldest son is called Charles but is very rarely called that, he is usually referred to as Charlie or Bobbins. He is very long sighted and needs to wear glasses all the time - when he has not broken them of course. My other son is called Leo, but is known as The Bean. He has a mild case of Spina Bifida and also has hydrocephalus, not that you would know that to look at him. My intention is to take a picture every day for a year and to write a little about it. The say that a picture is worth a thousand words and each picture will hopefully represent that day.

Eggs Easy Over



Scrambled eggs are all very well but sometimes you want a lovely runny yolk. When the craving gets too much I dry fry an egg and serve it on toast with mushrooms. Delicious.

Egg and Mushroom on Toast
Serves 1 - 3 pts

2 Slices WW Bread
3-4 Mushrooms thickly sliced
1 Medium egg (very fresh)

Put the bread in the toaster. In a small frying pan spray oil from a mister and fry the mushrooms until coloured then add a little water to help cook through you will need quite a high heat. When they are tender and the water has evaporated place on top of the toast.

Replace the frying pan onto the heat and spray again with oil. Crack the egg into the pan and then turn the heat down. When the white is set flip the egg over using a fishslice. Leave for a minute then remove and place on top of the mushrooms.

Try adding a little Worcester Sauce to the mushrooms for extra flavour without extra points
