Breakfasting on our deck

A week ago we treated ourselves to a delicious, somewhat nutritious, breakfast of grits*, eggs, sausage, toast, & chocolate milk.



We whipped up breakfast and then took it outside to delight in our southern b-fast fare and enjoy some nature. It was lovely.



Nothing like fresh air and scenery to complement a meal. (Not to be a meal, as my momma used to joke when we would ask her what was for dinner.)



Anywhere's a good place for head tilt.



I keep on reading about setting rituals as a family, and this is one I think we can all get behind. Let's hope our arteries are up to the challenge too! All for the sake of family togetherness, right?



* For the uninitiated, grits are delicious. I defy anyone to disagree! Just tell me your concerns and I'll come over put your doubts to rest with a hearty serving of grits and eggs. You'll be thanking me through bitefuls of delicious, hominy goodness.

Uh oh. I wonder if that means that Andrea doesn't love me? Whoops.

Love the winsome head-tilt. I see that being used for evil purposes later ("Can I PLEASE stay out and play later, Mommy?" "Dad, can I borrow the car?"). You will have to give in, too. Who could resist THAT?

And yes, it's true--grits are delicious. Robyn made some for me while I was in Atlanta, and I lapped them right up. But it could just have been her culinary prowess . . .

You have a grill and a table for your deck? No wonder Jacob likes to be out there so much! I never knew you had such goodies! Happy grits eating! They really are yummy (with lots of butter and salt)!
