Today’s prompt: unbelievable
Life is constantly full of surprises.
Yesterday morn I decided to fancy my toast.
The resemblance to a ‘Toad in the Hole’ was
an easy option – breakfast for one.
- with a spoon you make an indentation in the
center of a slice of bread - place in toaster (of course)
- spread butter around all edges of toast – not the middle
- place jelly in the center
Then the ‘unbelievable’ happened – an OMG moment.
The entire bottle of a well-known brand of grape jelly
preserves unbeknown to me had turned to liquid.
That was the end of the idea that resembles ‘Toad in
the Hole’ recipe.
Toast with butter is what I had to settle for ~ no Sunday morn treat.

Toad in the hole here is sausages cooked in a long dish covered in a batter mix (not the same as battered sausages). I also understand a toast version is a circle cut out of bread and an egg fried in it.

Thanks Di for the explanation. I used to make the egg – toast one only it went by some other name. According to my lab report I’m supposedly allergic to egg whites. I was trying to be creative 😂 substitutions.

Bummer! I wonder if you can scramble just the yolks?

No idea 🤷🏼♀️ Results of lab work (cost near $1,000) showed allergies (egg whites and dairy products) yet okay to eat foods my throat closed on. Last time my doc suggested wheat products to help lose more weight and lovely another incident. Maybe time for me to see a specialist. I’m late ⏰ today with posting and catching up on replies. My area hit the jackpot as a winter storm of great magnitude is going to begin at midnight and last for 24 hours. = up to 2 feet of snow – wind chill temps plus 40 to 60 mph winds – strong potential for power outages.

Makes me realise how lucky I am with my diet.
Awful about the weather. It’s been really mild here but colder weather is on its way I think. Keep warm and safe June.

Thanks Di. Yes, weather is certainly within the definition of winter. The frigid temps are forecast for most of the upcoming week. I lost power for ‘four’ hours and the apartment started to get cooler and cooler. Brrr!! Ever-so-thankful for the power to return. With regard to diet, out-of-nowhere I experienced a bad reaction to tuna, then chicken, then crackers. The whole situation is baffling to me. Maybe the next doctor can make sense of these strange occurrences with food = a mystery.

Sudden reactions to food are a worry June. Hopefully the doc can throw so me light on it.

I’m breaking down from Ageism. Yes, the problem needs to be addressed further. A passing thought down memory lane was one day after taking the same one-a-day vitamin for years with my orange juice I became nauseous. The tuna a popular brand (although product of Mexico) and the chicken was from the rotisserie at the local supermarket. Never know what is in the food we consume these days. I figure if it was a blockage then NO food would pass. Hopefully, I can find an allergist local and no months of waiting period. I miss my regular foods ~ eat mostly vegetables / little meat.

There is a lot to be said for making meals from scratch. I started doing it not only for cost, but so that we were aware of what actually went in it. Hope you can see s specialist soon.
