Two Breakfast & Books posts in one week! I think that makes me one lucky gal, because…MORE BOOKS. Eric and I had our usual Wednesday breakfast date this morning at Perkins (YUM), and then we went to the library (like we usually do after breakfast on Wednesdays). I had one book to return and one […]

Today I am giving you a special edition of Breakfast & Books to kick off the series (again). The bigger of my two local libraries had their bi-annual book sale this past weekend, and today (Monday) was BAG DAY. If you don’t know what bag day is, it’s usually the last day of library book […]

Well folks, this is the last Breakfast & Books post until the new school year starts at the end of August.  Instead of Eric and I going on a breakfast & books date every week, our day out will be a library date for the whole family.  We’re all looking forward to that, but I’m […]

Can’t.  Stop.  Buying.  Books.  I have come to the conclusion that I have an addiction.  However, at least my addiction is feeding my brain, instead of eating away at it.  Justification of said addiction is the key. Anyway, Eric and I had a nice day out and experienced something that warmed our hearts.  While we […]

I haven’t done one of these posts in a while, because I’ve been trying to be good about not buying new books when I have so many sitting on my TBR pile bookcase.  Eric and I have still been going to Barnes & Noble every week, but I’ve just been browsing and putting books on […]

In my last Breakfast & Books post, I told you that I probably wouldn’t be writing another one for a while because I have so many books to read.  Eric and I didn’t even go to Barnes & Noble after breakfast last week, and we only stopped there today because Eric was looking for a […]

I skipped last week’s Breakfast & Books post because I had just ordered a bunch of books from Amazon and I vowed not to buy anything at Barnes & Noble… and I kept my vow.  Therefore, I really didn’t have anything to write about.  I almost skipped this week’s post, too, because now I have […]

This week’s breakfast was nice and uneventful.  Everyone was using their inside voices and no one offered me a free kids meal.  The food was delicious and I ate too much, as usual.  It has been a VERY good week for book purchases, too. These are the books I bought at Barnes & Noble.  I’ve […]

So… this week’s breakfast was kind of interesting.  It was pretty busy when we got to Perkins, since we didn’t get our lazy butts there until noon.  We asked to be seated in our favorite waitress’s area (she’s the best waitress there), and settled in to our usual breakfast conversations.  Well, there was an older […]

Well, this week’s Breakfast & Books date turned out to be just books, and it wasn’t really a date because I went by myself.  Eric has a nasty cold, so we skipped breakfast and I just made a quick trip to BN to pick up the book I was planning on buying today (and a […]

It was so nice to have a Breakfast & Books Date with Eric yesterday.  We had to cancel it last week because schools here were closed due to the nasty weather and the kids were home.  Two weeks between dates may not sound like very long, but it felt like it lasted forever!  Breakfast was […]

One day every week, my husband and I have what we call our “Breakfast & Books Date”–we have breakfast at Perkins Restaurant and then head over to Barnes & Noble to look around.  More often that not I leave the bookstore with at least one book, but not always.  When I already have a huge […]
