It is hard to believe that August is here and Marcel and I recently celebrated our 12 1/2 year anniversary. I know, that is an odd anniversary to celebrate, but it’s traditional here- I guess half way through to your 25th is worth celebrating. Personally, I believe every day is worth celebrating, and I do celebrate every breath- even if some days I’m more focused on it than others.
One thing I did do this week was whip up some biscuits for Marcel. Occasionally, I really crave a good buttermilk biscuit and Marcel is always game to eat them, as he loves them. I had some good bacon, so I pre-measured everything the night before, had my butter grated and in the freezer, my dry ingredients measured and in the fridge. The following morning I snuck out of bed and got everything mixed up and going before his feet ever hit the floor. He isn’t one to like to ‘wait’ for breakfast, so I was glad I could get it going before-hand. He opted for no egg, and gobbled up two biscuits with ham. I, on the other hand, made a meal out of what you see in the photo. Add a cup of coffee (or two) and a huge bottle of water, and I was set.
Sometimes you just have to abandon the Greek yogurt and fruit for something a little more indulgent. This was one of those days.
As this first week of August comes to an end, we are gearing up for a little travel. A ‘break’ to get away from it all & I’m looking forward to seeing what adventures those few days bring.
This is going to be an amazing year.
