This is Dobby [: She is my sunshine, my only sunshine. She makes me happy, when skies are grey…
She just so happened to be on corgi addict when she was a wee pup ^___^ She was drinking some rain water. She’s a little over 1-year now and as happy as ever. I adore her.
But seriously, I think corgis have magical healing powers that will always brighten your day.

Sweet Potato Eggs Benedict
It’s one of those days where I spent half the morning day dreaming of breakfast before actually pulling myself out of bed to go to the grocery store. I knew that I wanted eggs benedict, but decided to forgo the muffin or biscuit in favor of sweet potato.
4 large Eggs
1 stick of Butter
Juice of 1 Lemon
1 large Sweet Potato
1 tbsp White Vinegar
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt
Paprika
Chives for garnishBring water to a rolling boil in sauce pan and add vinegar. Slice a thick round of the sweet potato, season with salt and paprika. Saute on low medium heat with a bit of olive oil, flipping to brown both sides until cooked through. Separate three of the egg yolks from the whites. Blend yolks with a stick blender (or regular blender). Melt butter (I used a microwave). While butter is still hot, pour in a steady steam in to yolks while running the blender. Sauce should begin to thicken. Add the lemon juice and blend for another minute or two. Crack egg into a small bowl and slip into boiling water. Remove from water after 4 minutes. Arrange sweet potato on a plate, top with poached egg and drizzle with hollandaise sauce. Garnish with chopped chives.
My sauce was thinner than I wanted because I let the butter cool too much before adding it to the egg yolk. Multi-tasking is a real skill, folks.
