Monday Recap and a Broccoli/Cauliflower Fritter Recipe

Happy Monday!  Anyone else have a hard time getting back into the working groove?  My day was 100% full of meetings.

Meeting One: 9-10:15am |  Meeting Two: 11-12:30pm  |  Meeting Three: 1-2PM  |  Chiropractor: 2:45-3:30 (ok, not a meeting, but time away from my desk)  |  Meeting Four: 4-4:30PM.

Meetings can get a little dry, ya?   If I drank coffee, I think it would be hysterical to just casually use one of the below mugs during said meetings.

No need to sugar coat.

Vodka.  I love Vodka

 

Or, my absolute favorite.  Ask someone if they’d like some coffee and hand them this mug.

You’re welcome.

Moving right along…

I went for a much needed jog this afternoon after work.  A quick 3.2 mile jaunt down the Papio Trail here in Omaha.  Love running that particular path.  You can go a short distance, or stretch it out to several!

Tonight, we are watching the CMA Country Christmas episode while I type up this Monday Blog.  Now, to sign off, an easy recipe for Broccoli or Cauliflower Fritters. 

Enjoy!
