Breakfast for dinner, lizards, and roses

I don't think that there is anything better for dinner than breakfast.  It is fast and yummy, two things that place it on the top of the list for easy meals when you really want to be lazy.  Our usual fast breakfast for dinner meals includes a cheesy omelet, biscuits (or toast), veggie sausage, grape jelly for me (the hubby prefers hot sauce--weird!), and orange juice.

The egg comes first, which answers that long studied question.

Get a few eggs going on the skillet while the biscuits cook in the oven.  Multi-taking at its finest!

 Scout stands guard in the kitchen.  While she is no Julia Childs, she does know her way around the kitchen! She isn't much help besides letting me know when the timer is beeping - she will run to the oven and paw at it.

The biscuits are ready!  No, these aren't homemade...that would take a little more time than I was willing to spend.

Ahhh...ready for dinner!

And while this has nothing to do with breakfast for dinner, I spotted a lizard before dinner running along our fence line.  Lizards are everywhere right now!  Isn't this one gorgeous!

While I was outside, I snapped some photos of the roses that are blooming like crazy in our yard.  Aren't they beautiful!  The yellow ones smell SOOO good!

Our own Charlotte

Yesterday, my husband and I took advantage of a lovely Spring day, getting the front garden in order (no small task), getting the automatic sprinklers in tip-top shape, and basically sweating our tails off (it was in the upper 80s).  As I brought up in an earlier post, my husband comes across skulls from time to time as he roams the woods throughout the area.  He currently has a wild dog skull sitting outside on the porch letting the sun bleach it a little more before it is added to his curio cabinet.  While I was working in the garden, I caught a little jumping spider meandering throughout the skull, and it was calm enough to stop and pose for some pictures.

I was not brave (crazy) enough to take a picture of the red wasp investigating the skull.

We are mostly finished with the front garden - hopefully all of the new plants grow.  I planted a peony, two camellias, petunias,  Mexican heather, lavender, basil, oregano, and snapdragons.
