Staying in the kitchen's warmth!

Happy Saturday! I awoke this morning, unwilling to leave the warmth of my bedroom. Then, I had a great idea to make breakfast and listen to Car Talk. Can you think of a better way to spend your Saturday? I can't.

I leaped out of my bed, put on my purple Uggs, and got to work. With my sweet little beagle gazing up at me, I fried some turkey bacon and made a delicious batch of blueberry muffins that will warm my belly all week long. This quiet morning was so pleasant, and it was just what I needed to unwind from all the craziness that is AmeriCorps Access JobLink in December (the most difficult time to find a job).
