Sunshine Day Baked Eggs

It might be raining outside, but it is sunny inside! Night breakfast is popular at our house, so the suggestion to have this as a dinner entree took no one by surprise.  Eggs, heavy cream (of course), brie and ham all baked together in a 400 degree oven. What could be better on a summer night? The tricky part was putting the baking dish into a larger baking pan filled with water and getting both into the oven without spillage. Just happened to have a bottle of Prosecco on hand, so Mark and I imbibed in a few Mimosas as well. It was just okay. We all agree that there are better uses for ham and brie.



Episode Note: "Amateur Nite" - perhaps my favorite episode growing up and I know a personal fav of Denni's. The kids order an engraved silver platter for their parent's anniversary but make the mistake of letting Jan handle the details (she's no Marcia, you know). She mistakenly thinks that it is ten cents per word for the engraving when in actuality it is ten cent per letter. Not having the cash to pay the extra, the industrious Brady kids form a singing group, aptly named The Silver Platters, don groovy costumes, and go on an amateur TV talent show to raise the money. Once again, so ahead of their time.  Two of the best Brady songs, "Sunshine Day" and "Keep On" are featured.
