Yesterday's breakfast.... warmed up left over "fried" bell pepper strips and 2 eggs cooked in the microwave and then topped with cheese...

Glad I bought a big bag of those bell peppers at Costco.... now I have more to "fry". So good!

The rain came down and the snow just all but disappeared...Got 1/4" rain. Mostly just drizzled on and off.

I finally went into town to the PO to pick up a package. I was going to go Monday, but too much snow. I ordered this "gate" for my car so Dude can stay in the back and not climb over the seats and put his dog hair all over and his kanji all over the windows!

Then I went to Ace to get some cracked corn. I had taken Dude with me and when I left the car he climbed into the front seat. He set off some sensor alarm! So, Dan helped me take the box the gate was in and put it across the opening between the two back seats. Then I guess just him moving in the car set the alarm off again. Groan. So much to read and learn about this car!!

Ok, let's make some easy peasy Crab Cakes...

Ingredients:

1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs, divided

2 green onions, finely chopped

1/4 cup sweet red pepper, finely chopped

1 large egg beaten

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 T. lemon juice

1/2 t. garlic powder

1/8 t. cayenne pepper (or more if you like it hotter!)

2 cans (6oz each) crabmeat, drained, flaked, and any cartilage removed

1 T. butter

Directions:

1. In a large bowl combine 1/3 cup bread crumbs, green onion, red pepper, egg, mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic powder and cayenne. Fold in crab.

2. Place remaining bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. Divide mixture into 8 portions, shape into 2" balls. Gently coat in bred crumbs and then press gently into 2" thick patty.

3. In large non-stick skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add crab cakes and cook 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. 4 Servings.

Later dinner was reruns (I have a fridge full!) and chair, wine, and TV. I was sooooo excited as the Channel 5 NBC local 6 o'clock news put my barn picture with the snow and geese on their news...

And on their 7 o'clock they closed the program with my foggy pasture photo!

All I know. Nuff said. Happy Hump Day. Ciao.
