Mini Cheddar and Bacon Frittatas


Dear lovely readers,

I am here in lovely Washington D.C. I’m probably having so much fun I don’t even know what to do with myself. Without my kids attached to my hip 24 hours a day, I’m most likely wandering the streets like a zombie, unsure of how to function not having to make macaroni and cheese and chicken nuggets for lunch. A lovely restaurant in the middle of the day with hubby…alone? Wandering the beautiful buildings and museums without pushing a double stroller and feeding the little one goldfish and apple juice to keep him from screaming his head off? Wow, I might be able to get used to this…

Anyways, yesterday we toured the Pentagon. I’ll make sure and show pictures when I get back. Although I can’t bring in a camera, or a purse or money for that matter, so the souveneir shop is out. But while I’m away please take care and make sure you try these simply delicious frittatas. I made these last week and I have to say, they are the best eggs I’ve ever had. It must be the salty bacon and cheddar that make these so amazingly tasty. They would be perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a baby shower or any occasion for that matter.

Another letter in a couple of days…take care!

Love,
Steph

    Girl you’re supposed to be on vacation! What are you doing online? Well I hope you’re at least having a cocktail while online ha ha.
    I love anything mini; never thought to make frittatas into mini’s. More to eat right, since they are bite size.
