Breakfast In the Spirit of Eggs Benedict

If there is one thing I adore, it’s a perfectly fried egg. You know, the whites fully cooked while the yolk is still bright and runny. There is a richness to runny yolks that isn’t found in a hard yolk.

One of those trees is an almond tree, planted back when all this land was part of an almond orchard. The side yard is just dirt with planter boxes. Come spring, the side yard will be transformed into our garden. Last year we had tomatoes. This year – who knows? A great deal will depend upon the return of the drought to our state and the cost of water.
