That Perfect Breakfast

Yesterday morning I met my friend Chris N. for breakfast at our favorite little diner up in town, and so I did not take time to sit and enjoy my usual after Thanksgiving breakfast of pumpkin pie and coffee. But that was yesterday. Today I had a lunch date with a different friend, my forever and a day friend Cindy, and although we met for an early lunch (it was 11 am), I did take the time to cut myself a slice of pie and enjoy it with my morning coffee. Oh, so yummy (and pretty too)!

Cindy and I sat and talked for a long time. She and I go back to infancy and our parents were friends before we were born. We haven't always spent a ton of time together, and we go long periods of time between visits, but there is an unmistakable bond that has stood the test of time. I love her and she loves me. As little girls we both had white hair and she was pretty sure we were actually sisters. I think we should have been.

    1. Eggs for Tom. Sunny-side-up or over easy? White, wheat, or rye toast?

  2. It is wonderful to have a friend like that. I have a friend like that, but she lives in Australia. When we do see each other it is like I saw her yesterday.........the years just melt away. Your pie for breakfast looks wonderful!

  3. The type of friends that you can skip long periods of time in between visits are always the best. No matter what, they seem to know you so well.

    1. Yes. We should have spent so much more time together as kids, but no matter, we will always love each other.

  4. Old friends are such a blessing. Hadn't talked with Shari for at least two years, so finally just called her a couple of weeks ago. SO wonderful catching up–why did
    I wait so long?
