It’s not often that my kitchen is quiet. But, this week, I finished a few errands and found myself in solitude on a weekday at 10 a.m. There are always so many things I can accomplish with an hour to myself.
On this grey little winter day, I elected to bag my responsibilities to make a perfect breakfast. Here’s what I did:
- I cooked two eggs over easy and sprinkled with sharp cheddar cheese.
- I sliced and toasted a pumpernickel bagel, then spread butter and Dalmatia fig spread on top.
- I sliced some avocado and sprinkled it with garlic powder and salt.
- When the eggs were done, they got a little Frank’s Red Hot Original.
This assortment sounds preposterously idiotic. But, it was a craving I could satisfy with a little time and even less effort. And I ate it alone while I played Christmas Carols on Pandora. It was absurdly peaceful and made me grateful.
It’s so easy to forget how simple peace is. It comes in too many forms, and it’s all there for the taking. Today, I found mine and ate it up.
What brought you peace this week? Share the peace!
