14 Feast

29 October 2016

I always seem to feel well in the morning so it must be true about the medical staff saying there is need for lots of rest. Early this morning I had managed to do a full half hour on the real bike trainer so I think that an outside ride is coming as soon as the weather warms up later in the week.

I was feeling so good this morning that I invited Cheryl out for brunch. One of my favourite restaurants in Long Sault is the Waterview. It's the kind of local restaurant where the waitresses don't bring you a menu because they know that you know the menu by heart. We were lucky to get a seat at 11:00am and I was very excited about the prospect of eating real food in a real restaurant. I carefully chose 2 eggs with hash browns and whole wheat toast. When this feast arrived I proceeded to chew thoroughly and use the grease and butter to slowly ease the mixture down my narrowed and sore throat – heavenly!!! It is amazing how much pleasure can be had from the simplest of experiences. 

I spent much of the afternoon recuperating from the morning excitement and exercise. I also had the brilliant idea of adding mushrooms to the order next time we have the Brunch. So many exciting possibilities are out there waiting! The picture is a happy memory from 2004 of me cooking eggs on Christmas morning.
