Saturday Morning

Last Saturday morning, I woke up at 7:15 and was starving. Mike wasn't ready to get up yet, so I tried to quietly entertain myself. After checking People.com, Facebook status updates, Tweets from all of the Real Housewives and Kardashians, playing Hanging with Friends and Words with Friends, and pinning some new recipes on Pinterest, I decided to get up and eat. Here is my breakfast in the making (turkey bacon to share). Those are my new Le Creuset pans. They deserve a blog post of their own.

I made coffee and brought some to Mike, but he said he would be down in 3 minutes. I decided to go ahead and eat. Good thing I did, because he didn't surface for over an hour! Who says you can't have a candlelight breakfast? Everything on this table made up a great start to the day.

View to my left: beggar #1.

View to my right: beggar #2. This is Winston Schneider. He came over for a play date on Friday and stayed for a slumber party. Winston is a counter surfer. I went to pick up Mike from the airport on Friday... he was returning from an IU recruiting trip. When I got home, there were a few thick stems on the kitchen floor. I realized our bunch of 5 bananas was missing. Winnie ate all of them, peels included -- but I guess he didn't like the stems. One time he ate an entire large Papa Murphy's pizza from the Schneider's counter. Hope he doesn't teach Riley that trick!

Mikey is up! Beggar #1 has relocated for prime sniff position.

Besties! After breakfast, all 4 of us went on a walk. Family fun day!!
