Breakfast options

I got the hardest part of my day out of the way at 8.30AM.

I had to eat crow for breakfast. Not tasty, but at least it was a small dose, rather than the whole bird, bones and all. I had to apologize to the 5th grade teacher I rather abandoned by quitting a teaching gig. Alright, I am a total git for accepting the job, then backing out, but after extensive time with my lack of paychecks and a calculator, I determined that there is no way I could afford to both teach AND stay in Chicago at the same time.

But since I was up early, I stopped by the farmers market. Where I sampled some amazingly smooth maple coffee. And unlike most of my other coffee experiences, this coffee did not involve copious amounts of sugar and cream to make it unrecognizably coffee. No burned beans!

And in the spirit of this blog, I had a muffin for breakfast. "Morning Mix" which was covered in yummy nuts, and filled with carrot, raisin, zucchini, oats, coconuts, etc. As the guy put it - the kitchen sink. Sadly, I devoured the muffin before I could take a picture.

no iTunes: watching Sliding Doors. Which is largely redeemed from its Gweneth Paltrow-ness by John Hannah (the gay guy from 4 Weddings).
