It's a rainy Saturday. Once again, Bryce's Little League opening day festivities were cancelled due to all the rain we're experiencing. So it's an at home, indoors kind of day for us.
We're experiencing a little 'cabin fever'. Running low on our list of activities. I may have to resort to taking my kids to the 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' movie tomorrow.....Bryce's favorite series of books to read.......I don't necessarily recommend this series for the younger kids because the 'S' word {stupid} is said a lot in them. And we're not allowed to say that word in our house....not even the adults. Not sure if the movie will happen or not, but he's been begging me to go.
So at the end of a long and rainy day I found a little pocket of quiet time for myself, where the kids had gone into their rooms to play 'Star Wars battles the princesses and pocket ponies'.
I had myself a little Moment.
Bread and butter. Yep, that's right, I ate all three pieces.....okay, maybe four.
And then added a glass of wine.
How was your Saturday? What did you do?

we are newly retired so it still seems like we have 6 saturdays and then a sunday. We are still getting the hang of retirement. I still think I have to do my laundry on the real sat. I do love being retired, the old part is a little harder to deal with.
Sometimes you've just gotta.
I had a mac n' cheese moment myself. The gooey, oven baked kind. :)
Oh yes! And sometimes lightly TOASTED french bread with thinly sliced cheese on top... :)
We went to see the Wimpy Kid movie and it was cute. We saw the first one as well. I had a wine moment myself after we got home....it is rainy and yucky here too!!!
@ellie, 6 Saturdays! That sounds fabulous!
@Kymberly, Mac n' cheese sounds like the perfect comfort food:)
@texwisgirl, I like the toasted idea....oh, and the cheese:)
@farmchick, glad to hear the movie is cute...sounds like you guys had a great rainy day:)
wine and bread... two of my favorite food groups!! hehe!!
Dh and I thrift shop hopped today as it was cold and rainy, I can relate to having these private moments, and remember having to grasp everyone I could with a vengeance. Thanks for sharing.

Everyone needs a little ' me ' time, especially with 'cabin fever' going round. Mine sometimes involves cho. ice cream and hot coffee...or toast and honey. You have the right idea, tho, all 4 pieces.
I cooked, and did a cabin drive. Cabin fever is going around here too.
It was good to get outside, even tho it was cold and windy.

@Liz, I couldn't agree more:)
@Sue, thrift shop hopping sounds like a great rainy day activity....I'll have to remember that one and the kids would get into it also:)
@Dar, I can't wait to see some of your barn pics that I'm sure will be coming up!
Good bread spread with good butter is the one food I just cannot eat slowly - I just need to cram it into my mouth. Maybe it is the dairy farmer syndrome! Hope it has stopped raining.
We aren't aloud to say "stupid" at our house either.
My Saturday was spent at a birthday party. Then at my in-laws for supper and watching the Butler game! Whoo Hoo go Bulldogs!!!

After Hubs got back from feeding yesterday, we painted the living room. You've inspired me to find just a little bit of time for myself... maybe today :-)
What did you do to me? I just finished two generous slices of bread with even more generous spread of butter and a pinch of salt, oh well, the wine too. It felt good; sometimes we overlook the simple things that make us content! Thank you for sharing.
