Breakfast for Dinner

In spite of the fact that the I'm-in-control January menu suggest that I was going to have this tonight for dinner, since about 2 pm today, nothing has sounded better than waffles.  Jason (sadly) is not really a fan of breakfast for dinner--it's an, indication of grocery desperation in our house--but he's in Germany this week, so I got home and ate two whole waffles, complete with melted blackberries and a side of eggs with leftover salmon.  Soooo good.

Turns out waffles are a popular idea tonight.  I was talking to my mom on the way home from a haircut, and my sisters and their families were all over for dinner so that they could have waffles.  With blackberries.  So even 3,000 miles away, we all sat down to breakfast for dinner.  I wonder what Kim and Casey ate?

It makes me happy and a little sad to think about.  After ten years, I've gotten used to living here--and the past few years have been infinitely better than the previous several.  I would actually miss the DC area if I left at this point, and I know that we are blooming where God has planted us.  Still.  Home with family and waffles still sounds as nice as it did to a most homesick me ten or so years ago.

2012 has been a very to-do-list oriented year so far, and on every weekend list the word "blog!!!" has appeared...and subsequently been the only unfinished task by Sunday night.  It is ridiculously unacceptable that, according to this blog, the first day of the year is January 18, Christmas did not happen, and no one knows what type of baby we are having.  I will do my best to catch up over the next week or so, but FOR THE LOVE. 

For now, it's another picture-less entry about waffles.  And flannel sheets, which are on the bed because Jason (who rates flannel sheets lower than breakfast for dinner) is gone.  And Five Mile Creek, which I have been watching every night because Jason is gone.  And oh, I'm looking forward to him coming home tomorrow...
