Lazy Sunday Mornings...

So, for as long as I can remember in my adult life anyway...Sunday mornings are a source of relaxation. Sure, when I lived in Cincinnati there was always the possibility of an outing about 11am for brunch...but most of the time I got to sleep in. Even when I worked from 12-8 on Sundays I would rise about 11:30am to get ready for work. Now, here in Washington, the brunch factor is gone, but Tim and I often rise late, eat late and that sets the tone for the rest of the day. This weekend isn't any different. We got up about 9am...Tim made crepes (per my request, I had just read the Martha Stewart Living's February issue and it made me crave them). So...we had ham egg and cheese crepes. Other mornings he will walk to Great Harvest Bakery and we will have a pastry from there....when we lived on the South Hill we were more inclined to do our other Sunday morning ritual...brunch and a movie. The downtown AMC has 5.00 shows before noon...so, we could hit a breakfast joint before and then go...or have a late lunch after. Living in Liberty Lake we haven't found the breakfast brunch place that will compel us to get up and go. We are more likely to travel to Spokane proper. There is the ever so delicious European Breakfast place in Post Falls, ID...but talk about WW points! EEEK!! At least in Cincinnati we had First Watch...with equally delicious figure friendly brunch...or you could go all out and eat something horrid for you! One of the other Sunday morning things I miss is CBS Sunday Morning...in Cincinnati it came on at 10am...I could be up, in my pjs and watch that while we contemplated breakfast or brunch...however, here in the PST...it comes on at 7AM...that is horrible! I can't or don't want to get up that early on a Sunday morning...but, sometimes I do, the show is really that good!

As for today...I picture curling up with a good book, watching a movie, or just hanging out with the cat and dog while my husband plays computer games...it is COLD out...so nothing outdoors today!! We have a London broil marinating...and planned what promises to be a delicious dinner! Enjoy your Sundays everyone!
