Between all the weekend traveling to visit friends, bridal showers, bachelorette parties, and weddings, it's nice to just have a weekend home with the hunny.
Mountain Man prepared dinner Friday night as I finished up my latest cake creation for pick up the next morning and we spent the rest of the evening curled up on the couch watching episodes of CSI.
We look forward to these kind of weekends, because we don't get them very often... the ones where we can just hang out and relax.
We were in bed by 1030.. does that make us lame? maybe....or just people who take their rest seriously.
You know what else we take seriously? Breakfast.
It really is the most important meal of the day, and rightfully so.
The weekends are the perfect time for delicious meals.. no deadlines or time constraints, just waking up when you want and getting in the kitchen- breakfast heaven.
