Breakfast in Bed

 

 

June 4th is another great day for romance, passion, and relationship harmony as the moon happily connects to mars and venus throughout the day. Show your sweetie an expression of your love by making him or her breakfast in bed this Saturday. Remember, in relationships, it's the little things you do that are so important. 

 

ARIES, LEO, SAGITTARIUS: A breakfast burrito that has a kick, could be just the thing to get your sweetie going in the morning. Hash browns or home fries made from scratch will have him or her eating out of your hand all day!

 

Breakfast Burrito:

Spoon mixture into the middle of each tortilla and top with shredded cheddar cheese. Roll up like a burrito, and enjoy!

CANCER, SCORPIO, PISCES: A Dungeness crab omelet could make your sweetie propose to you on the spot! Couple that with a bowl of fresh fruits and you'll be adored for the rest of the week!

 

Dungeness Crab Omelet:

 

1 cup Dungeness crab meat

1 small Onion

minced 1 tablespoon olive oil 

4 beaten eggs

2 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese

grated 1 tablespoon parsley, minced

 

In an omelet pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté. Mix crabmeat, eggs and cheese, and add to pan with sautéed onions. Reduce heat slightly.
