Carole: Mr. Michael in Caleb's Destiny makes a mean egg omelet that Destiny really enjoys. If you love omelets, give this one a try!

Egg Omelet Supreme Recipe

Ingredients for one person (or maybe two if you're light eaters):
2 fresh eggs
1-2 tablespoons of Almond Silk sweet milk
Vegetables: your choice
Meat: sausage, bacon, or steak: your choice
Cheese: (your choice)
Seasonings: (salt, pepper, onion powder, or whatever you like). Feel free to add a drop of Worcestershire sauce or steak sauce, if that is to your taste.

real butter

How to make this omelet for one person:

1. Cook your chosen meat until done. Crumble bacon or sausage. Cut steak into small pieces.
2. Chop vegetables into bite size, or smaller, pieces. (I like a few peppers, a touch of green onion, greens like broccoli, spinach, etc or whatever you like).
3. Whisk seasoned fresh eggs and approximately 2-4 tablespoons of Almond Silk sweet milk together. Stir in your vegetables and meat.
4. Spray iron skillet with butter-flavored spray, or use real butter, my preference, and heat between a low to medium fire (I like to take it slow so the skillet won't get too hot, causing the eggs to get too brown.) Turn down the temperature if it seems too hot.
5. Pour mixture into skillet. Keep a close eye on the eggs and when they seem done enough to flip, then do so.
6. Sprinkle cheese on top. When done to suit your taste, turn off heat, fold into halves and slide onto your plate.

Serve with real buttered toast (your choice of bread) fried hash browns, and fruit. Feel free to adjust the recipe. Add salsa or other condiments of your choice.

Enjoy!

Caleb's Destiny

Mr. Michael, Destiny Rose McCulloch, and Hunter have a mysterious history. Why were three fathers, all business partners, murdered under suspicious circumstances while on their quest to find gold?

Hunter is determined to protect his boss and the precocious young lady who he suspects holds a key answer to his questions.

Mr. Michael wants only to be left alone to attend to his property, but what can he do when Destiny refuses to leave and captures the heart of every one of his employees?

Destiny almost forgets her quest when she falls in love with Mr. Michael's ranch and all the people there. And then Mr. Michael is much too alluring to ignore. The preacher man back east where she took her schooling tried to claim her heart, but the longer she stays the less she can remember him. She only came west to find a little boy she knew years ago. A little boy all grown up by now...unless, of course, he's dead.

Three children, connected through tragedy and separated by time, are fated to reunite and re-right some powerful wrongs.
