Black Mountain "Western" Omelette

I'm cracking eggs, and I'm at Nanny and Papa's house.

I've got a band-aid over my eye because my brother hit me in the head
with a toy made out of metal. 

Our ingredients are chopped onion, chopped cherry tomatoes, shredded
jack cheese, chopped green pepper, and diced ham.

I'm adding salt and pepper.

Ollie is whisking the eggs. I am going to teach him to
be an omelette chef like me.

Nanny's idea was to make two omelettes at the same time so that it would
be quicker and so that everyone's omelette would be hot when we sat down
to eat.

We are getting ready to eat our omelettes. Nanny  made toast to go
with our breakfast. I love Nanny's house because I get to spend time
with my family almost every day when I'm there.

Christmas in New Bern Omelette

I went outside Gramma B's house to pick some herbs like rosemary, chives,
and parsley. I love Gramma B's back yard because it's got lots of herbs and
vegetables like the mustard greens I was eating this time.

I like Gramma B's whisk because you don't have to whisk
with your arm.

I added the herbs into the eggs and then I put them
into the oiled pan.

Now I'm putting the eggs into the oiled pan. I liked Gramma B's omelette pan
because the omelette slides off easily.

I'm adding some cheese to the omelette.

I am now flipping the omellete. Ollie and Mommy are just goofing off in the
background.

This is Ollie getting ready to eat his omelette. He wanted some yogurt, too.

I am serving breakfast to my family.

I am thinking about just food in this picture.


After breakfast, I cleared the table.`

The Beachy Peachy

Mom helped me get my omelette going by cracking
eggs for me. We were all hungry!

I cut up colby-and-mozzarella cheesesticks for the omelettes.


Here are our ingredients. Peach salsa. Cheesesticks. Sauteed zucchini and onions.
Butter (for the pan). And eggs.

I'm at the beach house, getting ready to pour eggs into
a hot pan. 

The zucchini and onions were left over from dinner last night.
Then I added cheese and peach salsa.

My mom's favorite salsa from Trader Joe's.
My mom didn't take any pictures of us eating our omelettes because we were all so hungry and we ate them right up without taking any pictures. Gramma B named this omelette "The Beachy Peachy" because we ate it at Emerald Island on our vacation and it had yummy peach salsa in it. It was delicious.

The Black Mountain Omelette

We are visiting North Carolina.
I'm cutting up herbs from Nanny's garden.

Nanny showed me her trick of how to crack each egg
into a small bowl before adding it to the big bowl.
Just in case you get a bad egg.

Sometimes I mix my herbs into the eggs.
Sometimes I don't.

Mom flipped the omelettes for me.
The ingredients were salsa, ham, cheddar cheese, parsley, and chives.

Nanny thought my omelette turned out excellent.
That's what she said. "Excellent."

Dad and Ollie ate it all up too. So did Papa Clyde.

Daddy's Favorite

Here's what went into today's omelette.
Mom suggested the green olives and even though I didn't
want to put them in at first, I'm glad we did because it was
DELICIOUS!

After I cut up the red onion, Mom sauteed it in a pan.

I'm getting good at cracking eggs.

This time I tried mixing my herbs into the eggs.
It didn't really make very much difference in the taste.

I'm cutting up the green olives.

I cut up two small tomatoes and Mom got rid of their seeds for me.

Toast and stawberry jam.

Our finished omelette. Daddy called this one "My Favorite Omelette"
because it had so many good ingredients. The cheese was melty and
salty inside the omelette. Mmmmm.

Monday Evening Omelette

We called this the Monday Evening Omelette because Daddy wasn't here and it was Monday and we were having it for dinner.

Mom already made dinner but it was disgusting--she thought so, too--so we decided to make an omelette because I'm a great omelette chef. About her dinner, Mom said, "Even good chefs mess up a meal every now and then." The pork chops were too chewy to eat. We used the salad Mom made for our dinner; it was good in the omelette but it was bad by itself because it had too much vinegar in the salad dressing.

This is the mixture of my omelette. All the green stuff is parsley and chives. Mmmm.

The silver blur in the middle of the picture is me whisking the eggs with a fork.

This is the salad that we added to our omelette.

I cut the cheese and put it into a grater.

The bread is the best part. The cheese is, too.

I am pouring the eggs into the pan now. The eggs are in mid-air.

This omelette smelled like hot, melting cheese.

Those two pieces of bread that are sticking out of the omelette look like
a leg and an arm.

The omelette was fantastic. Ollie was too busy watching TV to eat it.
Besides, he ate all his soup and my soup too from the dinner Mommy made.
I LOVE THESE PICTURES!

Mother's Day Omelette

 Today is Mother's Day. Mommy stayed in bed with a cup of tea and her book while Dad, Ollie, and I made omelettes for breakfast.

It's raining this morning. Here I am going out to the back yard for chives.

Me, picking the chives.

I cut up the chives for the omelette. Chives go really good with eggs.


Adding chives.

Adding mushrooms.

Getting ready to take the tray up to Mommy. We also gave her bananas and
apples with yogurt on top.

Happy Mother's Day, Mommy!

We fooled Mommy and told her -- after she had already eaten
her omelette -- that we put a special ingredient in the omelette.
Then Daddy showed her this picture! She didn't believe us!
