Actually Val, that is a tiny store. Most grocery stores are 100,000 to 150,000 square feet of sales space. We only have four aisles! I definitely wear a mask during business hours.

This is an amazing mark, and I have been fortunate to spend a chunk of time along side you on your journey! Enjoy an extra doughnut today.
CONGRATULATIONS, CK!
Here is a "cake donut"!

Enjoying it while it lasts!

Good morning earlies. I was hoping to sleep in but up about 3:00 AM 2 nights in a row now. Tomorrow may be sleep in day.

Congratulations CK on your 6 year anniversary. It’s wonderful you are enjoying a sober retirement.

SG I have no sense of space measurement but that is a lot of people allowed in a 4 aisle store for sure. Good thing you are wearing a mask as that is way too close for comfort.

I am skipping yoga today. It switched to chair yoga last week and I didn’t really care for it. The guided meditation would also have me snoring today also.

A good Saturday ahead for everyone!

"Rise & Shine Cafe" on a glorious Sunday!

Today is a baking day...
waiting for the crumpet dough to rise and the cream cheese to soften with the butter for the kolackes...
Christmas cookbooks are out on the table waiting for new recipes to be discovered ...

Enjoying the morning waiting for the sunrise over the lake...

Waiting is making this Sun-day a really cool Fun-day (so far!)

Great mantra, purps!
That is exactly what I thought when I set aside my dough to rise....I did what was necessary... covered if and from then on it was out of my control...

I will leave it be for an hour...trusting in 'the powers that be'!
