Tuesday May 29th, 2007: Dinner

Omlettes for all.

2 cheese omlette for C : cream-cheese and packaged mozzarella, 3 eggs
2 cheese+ omlette for R : cream-cheese and packaged mozzarella with some chives and some onion/asparagus mix for extra flavor, 4 eggs

For M and P:
cream cheese
shaved cheddar
chives
sauted onions and asparagus with garlic
5 eggs each

Notes:
1. Make 3 egg omlettes for everyone except C who gets 2
2. R doesn't like the cream-cheese - keep his simple
3. Break 12 eggs into the bowl and mix all at once - find out #cups for 3 eggs


Comments:
R: his was too strong, he finished C's
C: He liked his well, but couldn't finish it
P: Too much salt, not enough sweet counter-balance. Didn't finish
M: Ate it all
