Needless to say, the Sausage Potato quiche was my favorite. Filled with eggs, cottage cheese, colby jack and big bag of hashbrowns - it was less eggy than most quiches. It’s topped with crumbled sausage - which was actually my idea, the recipe called for bacon but the Quiche Lorraine had bacon in it and so I decided on sausage.

Unfortunately, our meeting at work that I was cooking all this food for was at 9:00 a.m. I got up at 6 and started working on the food and was barely done by 8:15. Quiche takes 45 minutes to cook and on top of that I had cinnamon and blueberry rolls to bake as well.

Not only was I in charge of food for the quarterly department meeting, I was also in charge of the slides, introducing each presenter and making the slides look amazing. I pulled it all off flawlessly, but when it was over I was so exhausted that I took a half day off.

The half day off was used to study for a mid-term exam for a mini-mester that I am taking in Graduate Level financial accounting. Blech.

Since this recipe was so dang delicious I thought I would share the recipe with you. Everyone at work loved it as well.

I do not like Financial Accounting 101
I do not like it, it isn’t fun.

How about in a class, sitting on your big fat butt?

I do not like it in a class, or on my butt
I do not like it in a rut.

How about on a white board,
Sitting next to Christ our Lord?

Not next to Christ, not next to God
Not in a school, or a school of Cod.

I do not like Accounting 101
I do not like it, it isn’t fun.

Would you try it on the web?
Would you try it with Governor Jeb?

Not with Jeb or on the web
I will not try it, Ed just said.

How bout in a cat or a catamaran?
Or in a car with Uncle Sam?

Not in a cat, nor catamaran, or uncle Sam
Not even with a side of green eggs and ham?

How bout with an Indian Professor
Or maybe with the Barefoot Contessa?

Well maybe with the Barefoot Contessa,
And maybe with an Indian Professa.

It seems I do like Financial Accounting 101
It’s not so bad, it can be fun
I like the debits and credits too
I do like them and so would you!
