Coffee and A….Cat

On Saturday mornings we stay in bed a little bit, to drink coffee and eat cake…

Well, Hubs eats cake, it’s just coffee for me.

Back in the days before I changed my dietary habits we used to have pain aux chocolat on a Saturday morning…back in the days…

I content myself with the fabulous aroma!

Recently Shad’s has been showing up on the bed to wistfully eye Hubs’ delicacy.
