Just an Omelet

We're seven days into 2013 but it wasn't until today that I felt like it was really the New Year, and not just because I'm in withdrawal from not hearing "Winter Wonderland" or "Sleigh Ride" 200 times a day. Last week at work a lot of people were still on vacation, but yesterday many meetings started popping up on the schedule. The Metro is crowded once again, and --here's how I really know the new year has started -- the number of people in my gym classes has doubled.

 

January is the time to get back to my routine, and I'm playing catch-up in a few areas, such as with my local food challenges. I recently missed our themed Brunch Week, and while I had ideas about whipping up some fantastic apple pancakes, on Sunday we decided on just a plain old omelet. I tried to make it fancy with spinach and mozzarella. 

It may  be hard to see where everything came from in the pic so I listed it here.

• Eggs - Bivalve, MD (but purchased at WF in the local food section)
• Mozzarella - from the Blue Ridge Dairy in VA
• Butter - this butter came from PA, but I;m actually switching to a non-dairy/non-soy butter
• Spinach - farmers' market (frozen)
• Onion - harvested from my garden earlier this year
• Bell pepper - from my garden. We have overwintered some pepper plants indoors and they're still producing!

 Here's the best part--all that gooey cheese inside. You can click on the SSFC badge above to see what other Challenge participants are eating this week.
