We slept too late on Sunday. I mean to tell you we woke up well past lunchtime. I sat up first, never a good sign, and asked The Mister, “What time you reckon it is?”
“Mmm 11:30.”
I turned my phone on and gasped, “It’s 1:30!”
Later, much later, the girls and I went out for a lil doorscursion and some shopping.
I pass this joint all the time. I’ve heard it’s cheerful and tasty. Never been in.
I think when you see the hours, you’ll understand why.
Lawd.
I bout never dine out during breakfast hours.
For me to drag my ass out of bed for breakfast, it pretty much takes ten kinds of fruit and bread served with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking dolphins — and to be honest, even that was more about the kids.
Breakfast foods taste just fine for both lunch and dinner, thank you very much.
Still, it’s a cute place, maybe cuter in the summer — but I’ll never know, because who wants to walk around when it’s hot, let alone eat outside?
I’ll tell you who, people who wake up before the sun, jog along the Monon Trail, and say things like, “Let’s be really naughty and get some turkey bacon!”
Not my people.
My people are like, “Ooh, it’s sweater weather (48F), let’s get out and take pictures of doors!” … and then go home to goat cheese pizza and beer.
There was no traffic on the Monon Trail Sunday evening.

That is a cute place. I probably would go, since I’m up so early, like 4 or 5 a. m. ! We go to breakfast quite a lot! 🙂

Early riser here – but I would still be miffed about a restaurant that is closed after 2PM. I suppose that’s because the ONLY joint here in our new town has the same hours – they close after the lunch rush is over.

Clever you finding an afternoon job! Seriously, how do you manage to sleep in? Animals don’t wake you? Kids don’t wake you? I must be doing something so wrong. No wonder I’m always exhausted. Last night I was so tired I forgot the pizza in the oven and had to throw it out today, but that might have been the sedation I had for a procedure heh.

None of us go to bed early. The cats get crunchies 11pm-12am. Moo usually goes to bed first, and she’s usually the first one up. The first one up takes the dog out and feeds the animals. IF the cat bowl is empty, and it’s not usually. We all sleep late, all of us, if we don’t have a reason to wake early.
If I didn’t have an afternoon job, I’d have a before dawn job and sleep in the afternoon. Yep.
We’re all up early Monday-Friday and we all hate it.

Early rising is so commonplace in Arizona, but that is because of something you would hate: the heat in the summer. People tend to work outdoor jobs from 5 or 6 to 1 or 2. Isn’t that odd?

It is very pretty and colorful but I do find those hours strange, even for a breakfast place.
Then again I’m one of those annoying morning people so they’d lose my breakfast business by only opening at 8:00 – WTH! I mean really, I might eat breakfast that late on weekends….
For the record I don’t think turkey bacon is anyone’s idea of being naughty – unless you know someone who has found some bizarre use for it in the bedroom 😦

Since retirement, I only get up early if I half to, like going for a sunrise photography shoot and breakfast is not a requirement but good if you find some interesting places or hole-in-the-wall bargain places where the locals hangout. But, sometimes you find a gem and the early bird does get in with a shorter line or wait so if I find a place like that I’d rather get up early to see the door while on the inside rather than from the outside. I know of such places in Honolulu so maybe I shoot doors for a future post from there next month.
