Do you need a little breakfast inspiration?

Check out this one skillet dish!

Shepard's Breakfast

3/4 pound bacon strips, finely chopped

1 medium onion, chopped

1 package (30 ounces) frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed

8 large eggs

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

In a large skillet, cook bacon and onion over medium heat until bacon is crisp. Drain about 1/2 of the drippings (you need them to help cook the potatoes)

Stir in hash browns. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat until bottom is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Turn potatoes. With the back of a spoon, make 8 evenly spaced wells in potato mixture. Break 1 egg into each well. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cook, covered, on low until eggs are set and potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese; let stand until cheese is melted.

Thank you!

Hazard Drops To High

The Fire Hazard rating has dropped from Extreme to HIGH.  On Thursday, Sept. 17th, High Hazard Activities can recommence in the mornings but must cease at noon (time change due to a later sunrise) and a two-hour fire watch posted.

Please be aware that HIGH HAZARD means just that.  We are not out of the woods yet, so to speak. As I am typing this Tuesday afternoon, North Oyster is out on a bush fire, despite Monday night’s rain.

No open outdoor fires, including campfires. Propane appliances are okay.  If you must light your indoor wood stove, make sure your chimney cap and spark-catcher mesh is in place and clean.  

We are hoping the next few weeks will be uneventful.  

Thanks.

Has anyone had any experience for garage door installation using either Warmland Garage Door service or Accent Garage doors? I've had 1 recommended but am having difficulty finding any other references on them. 

Thanks in advance,

Moth Multitudes

Those large numbers of moths you are seeing these days are the Western Hemlock Looper Moth.  They are endemic to BC and numbers rise periodically (approx. 10-30year cycles).  

They normally attack western hemlock but if not available, will use Douglas fir and cedar.  

They won’t eat your clothes or grains.  

Fortunately, bats and dragonflies eat moths.
