After I posted yesterday, weird shiznit continued to happen… Like this magical creature randomly showing up on our porch:

We don’t really mess with magical creatures, so we named her Gladice and let her stay. Our neighbor’s cat was more than interested, if ya know what I mean ;)

This morning, I was up bright and early for a trip & breakfast with my prof. It’s that time of the year:

Isn't she a bunch of German goodness?

We bought some amazing cheese from this farm stand. Yes, Sarah, those are samples! ;)

We pretty much had a feast for breakfast thanks to the Farmer’s Market.

Fresh flax-sunflower seed bread:

Organic & local low fat yogurt with strawberries:

Since it is beautiful out today, we had breakfast on the prof’s porch. Our view:

There was also jam & coffee:

For our main course (yes, I realize it’s breakfast :) ), we had fresh local eggs with organic cheddar cheese & scallions. These dishes are handpainted and from the 1930s.

My prof is definitely a foodie :) She has so much cool stuff at her house too! Maybe I’ll get her to do a guest post someday…hmmm..

Well now I’m full and ready to take on this paper. I have a blog worthy event going on tonight so check back for an update tomorrow.

Hope your Saturday’s going well!

I am going to have to post a picture of my cat Annie. She looks JUST LIKE your neighbor’s cat.

I love the unicorn! Do you have an inkling of where it came from?

I’m jealous of your farmer’s market morning. I cannot wait until I don’t have to work Saturdays to go to mine.
