Happy Saturday everyone......

Aaah, I have to tell you, I am enjoying a break from my 8 year old this week. She is visiting her nanny and papa. I love her more than my luggage, but having to find something to entertain her 24/7 since school has been out is a little tiring. But, I'll be glad to see her when she gets back that's for sure.

This fine Saturday morning, I woke, at my leisure. I got myself ready and went into the nearest village and picked up a library book they had been holding for me. You might have heard of it, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society? I am looking forward to digging into it a little later tonight.

I treated myself to a brunch (never had one before) at a quaint and quirky little restaurant called MAD HATTERS. (You really should click on this link to get a perfect view of it). What a cute little place. Their eclectic collection of goods and clocks and wall plaques and this and thats was definitely worth stopping in for. But the really, really good food will make me go back. Today, I chose the Monte Cristo. Never had one before. But I will be learning how to cook this bit of deliciousness. Anyone have any favorite recipes out there?
What a fantastic brunch. It was served up with a small helping of seasoned onion potato bits. YUM-O!!!

Anyway, hoping you all have a blessed weekend. Love to hear from you.

I'm a bit late for the weekend. We had a very busy, but wonderful weekend ourselves as I hope you did. Going to check out the links in your post now. I'm very intrigued by the name of that book you're reading!
