Breakfast on Lopez Island, WA State

What a beautiful morning.   The sun was rising like a brilliant gem in the sky lighting up our surrounding landscape with beautiful hues of yellow and orange.

Breakfast on Lopez Island, WA State

Breakfast this morning was a warm bowl of steel cut oats, to eat outside. I followed my recipe here and added 2 tablespoons of pumpkin pie filling while I was warming it up. I folded in a handful of white chocolate chips too.

To finish off this decadent breakfast, I pulled out my brand new kitchen torch so I could melt or “Brulee,” some sugar on top.

The result? An amazing hard-shell candy top to a heavenly bowl of sweet and rich steel cut oats.

To me? This was dessert.  B must have felt the same. He devoured the entire bowl, and asked for more.

Success!

We got comfortable.  Very, comfortable.  Spending the warm lazy days of summer in Roslyn, WA and the surrounding area has been such a heart warming experience.  We fished, we cooked, we swam and we golfed.   But now it’s time to say goodbye.  We can feel the slight chill in the air and the leaves are beginning to change their colors.  Fall is upon us and it’s time to bring the Airstream back home and get her ready for her new adventure.  The San Juan Islands.

Until next year sweet Roslyn, we will miss you.
