I slept in Sunday, for the first time in a looooong, long, looooong time. My weekday schedule these days consists of rising by 530, out the door by 640, in my desk by 7, and on the weekends ~ I just can't break my body's urge to be being productive and active by 7am. But not this past Sunday. This Sunday I slept. And slept. And slept. Till TEN. Ten AM. Holy Mother, it was Wonderful. I needed it. I've been feeling tired, and depleted, and when I woke up from my sleep in, I felt rested, and refreshed.
When I awoke at Ten, I found that my babe had been up cooking. He made that amazing Quiche above ~ the crust, and everything, by hand. What a start to the day. And it got better and better from there. I accomplished more by the end of the day then I do on most Sunday's. Cleaned, shopped, flea market, basketball, dinner with the fam, designed a new frame, T's homework, and most important: Enjoyed the whole darn day.
Lesson Learned. Sometimes, taking care of yourself First, by doing something as simple as sleeping in ~ can yield big time results in productivity.

Mmmm, how bout the recipe for that Kish? It looks so delicious! Glad you got some well-deserved rest. We all need it and rarely take time for it.
Can you send Babe over. I need a cook but he will have to clean as well. Loves you!
I am in the same boat, always waking up early on the weekends, I am going to leave this post up on the computer when hubs gets home so he can see how awesome your man is and make me homeade breakfast!
:)
glad you had such a great weekend!
Your food pics always make me hungry! I'm going to come visit you so I can enjoy all this yummy food!
gotta take care of yourself for sure!! 10am, wow lucky you! and lucky you to have breakfast to wake up too
You always have the best food pics! Definitely take care of yourself first! It's hard as women for us to remember that sometimes, but it's necessary!
If I didn't wake up my husband on the weekends, he would sleep straight until noon. But I totally agree, when I'm well rested, I'm more productive. But I have trouble sleeping in the weekends!

Woah, you pedal blend a smoothie?! Cool! Yeah for sleeping in and having a productive Sunday! :)
Aren't sleep in days the best. Because my body is so accustomed to waking up early I rarely get the chance to sleep in either; that's why naps have recently become my best friends! And what a sweet hubby you have to make quiche for you! YUM!!
