Living on a Dime
Good Morning Sunshine
2 cups white sauce
6 eggs, hard boiled and chopped
1/2 C. dry milk
1/4 C. flour
2 dashes salt
2 C. cold water
2 TB butter
6 pieces of toast
In a covered jar, combine flour and salt and mix well. Add water. Shake until all the ingredients are dissolved. Melt margarine in a 1 quart sauce pan. Stir in flour-milk mixture and cook over low heat until mixture thickens and starts to bubble. Keep stirring until thickened completely. Once the white sauce has thickened, add eggs. Serve on toast.
We have really enjoyed the Moody books by Sarah Maxwell. In book 3, Winter with the Moodys, Grandma's favorite meal is "creamed hard boiled eggs over toast". The children and I had never heard of this so I wrote to Sarah and asked her what it was. She briefly described it to me. I went for a search and found a recipe called Good Morning Sunshine on Living on Dime. This, I believe, is Creamed Eggs Over Toast. Hannah and Daniel really enjoy this for breakfast or for lunch. It has been a lot of fun trying different recipes that Ms. Maxwell mentions in her books. Our family has been blessed to have been a test family for 2 of the Moody books- Book 3 Winter with the Moodys and Book 4 Spring with the Moodys. It has been such a privilege to work with Sarah and offer her feedback on her books. It has been so much fun!
Love Always,
Mommy
