Back to Blogging!!

on January 15, 2009

HELLO! I’m back on the East Coast and back to daily blogging from here on out. I missed you guys SO much!

As I mentioned, the wedding was amazing. It was the best day of my life. I can’t believe we were married nearly two weeks ago!

Yayyyyy! I’ll probably do a real wedding recap in a few days or so.

Back to reality….

I’m totally exhausted! We left California last night at 10 PM and arrived in Atlanta at 5:00 AM. We slept on the floor (ewww) for an hour or so and then grabbed breakfast.

Thank goodness for Perfect Oatmeal from Starbucks! I added about 1/2 a packet of brown sugar and a packet of dried fruit. It felt so good to eat oatmeal again. YAY for whole grains!

I also drank a bottle of OJ. This is two servings, but I think I needed the Vitamin C after 2 hours of sleep!

We got home at noon, hugged the puppies, and checked over the wedding photo proofs (YAYYYY)! And… then we crashed. It was one of those moments when I wanted to go for a run, but I knew sleep was the priority.

After waking up three hours later and doing grocery shopping, I ate a light, late lunch (I slept through lunch).

Two Eggs Benedict with Canadian Bacon… well, the eggs were scrambled because I cannot perfect the Benedict process!! Any tips?

And a delicious side of cherries! Yum for in-season fruits!

Time to unpack and unwrap some more wedding presents!

I hope you all had a great last two weeks. I can’t wait to catch up on YOUR blogs very soon!!

XOXO

See you for a yummy lentil casserole dinner. 🙂

Welcome back!

I am not a huge fan of eggs benedict but I did see Regis on “regis and kelly” learning how do make them properly. I think I picked up two key things… Help place the egg whites into the hot water using a large serving spoon. As for the hollandaise sauce, the key is lots of butter and add the egg yolks slowly to the butter as you are using a mixer…

that’s all I got. They actually made it look really good!
emily January 15, 2009, 5:23 pm

Welcome back! You’ve been missed! I can’t wait for the wedding recap!
Quinn January 15, 2009, 8:23 pm
Welcome Back! You can buy a little egg poacher which does it perfectly, or you can do it in a pot a warm bath of water – not boiling – and some vinegar and literally just crack the egg right in there. You will know when it’s done!
HangryPants January 15, 2009, 10:57 pm
Oh Caitlin I’ve miss your daily posts! So glad you are back. 😀

Also, what is the Beneditct process? I only do fried, scrambled or omlet eggs.

Welcome back. 😀
imadedinner January 16, 2009, 6:08 am
Welcome back and CONGRATULATIONS!!! Im so glad you had a wonderful honeymoon!!!
Caitlin (see bride run) January 16, 2009, 6:23 am
thanks guys!!

heather – eggs benedict are cooked in a pot of hot water (without the shell) and then you scoop them out with a spoon. but i cant figure it out!!
Annie January 16, 2009, 7:02 am
Welcome back!! You & your wedding/honeymoon looked fabulous! But I'm glad you're back! <3
Jessica January 16, 2009, 8:32 am
To poach eggs, fill a large saucepan with boiling water. Break eggs into a cup and dip the cup into the water. Cover, turn heat down a little to where its barely simmering, and cook for about 6 minutes. The key to the water is to add vinegar. Any kind works. Distilled white is the best. At least a tablespoon. The Southbeach Diet book has a faux hollandaise that is amazing. It uses smart balance and egg beaters.

I’m a new reader to your blog. I love it! Congrats on the wedding. I just got married in November.
Melissa January 16, 2009, 10:00 am
I finally realized who you look like, there is a girl on the TMZ show who could be your Twin! You have to check her out. Anyway, your wedding pictures are gorgeous! Welcome back 🙂
Megan January 16, 2009, 1:13 pm
Those wedding pictures are beautiful! Congratulations!! The honeymoon looked amazing. I’ve never been to California… but I would love to go someday.
