Thanks for breakfast Danny....

I know this statement will surprise a lot of the people who know me best.....

I HATE MORNINGS!!!!

It seriously takes me an hour and some caffeine before I can walk, talk or see straight.  I set two alarms 15 minutes apart and hit snooze on them both multiple times before I am even conscious.

I'm amazed my boyfriend hasn't thrown me out the window at 5 AM yet :) He is a saint some days....

My kids have even been known to approach me with this question: "Mommy, is it safe to talk to you yet???"  Although my youngest thinks it is HILARIOUS to blow raspberries on my belly when I won't wake up.  Little imp.

The only other thing that I pretty much always dislike as much as waking up in the morning is eating breakfast.

Growing up my parents could NEVER convince me to eat at home in the mornings... never fear though.  I would go to school and buy two fresh out of the oven cookies and some chocolate milk :) (humm... wonder where the kids get their sweet tooth from.....)

I don't mind COOKING breakfast per say.. I just don't like to eat it, and I don't like to wake up.. therefore my poor kids are relegated to pop tarts and cereal in the morning. (yes, I am aware that I am contributing to their obesity and being an all round horrid mother by serving pop tarts)

So I promised to make them biscuits, bacon and eggs this morning.

They were STOKED!!!

They started asking for it at 6AM.

Grrrrr....  

I'm going back to bed.  LOL.

Anyway about 9 AM, after they have all already had apple sauce and bananas, I start to function and to the stove I go.... because I actually LOVE to cook- even if it does have to be breakfast.

SO.. two cans of biscuits baked in the oven (yes I cheated there), two pounds of bacon and a little more than a dozen eggs later I am actually feeling the urge to eat a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit for myself... YUM!

And my sweet little Emma helper set a beautiful table, complete with mood lighting ....

As the kids start to chow down they exclaim, "This is the best bacon ever, Mom! Where did you get it?"

"Its bacon from one of Danny's hogs."

"Danny Geisler?"

"yes"

"DANNY, makes the best bacon in the world!!!!"

WHAT!?!?  I get none of the credit????  sigh.....

So, Danny, thanks for breakfast---
