Breakfast Thursday 20 November 2025

irisblue asked me to fill in for her this morning. She is in the hospital. She said, it's okay to tell you that she is in a safe place, and her cats are okay as well. I know that the breakfast group will be hoping she has a speedy recovery, and gets better soon.

This morning I'm having black coffee ☕, with a toasted bagel with cream cheese.

I don't post in this forum because my meals are just not posting-worthy, but I always read and enjoy irisblue's posts.

Think of Irisblue set up in her house with a cozy pot of hot tea to start the day. It is indeed distressing to think of her in the hospital instead of the usual peaceful beginning.

Thanks for informing us and doing the thread, Emile.

Hoping irisblue will recover quickly. Sending her lots of healing hugs.



Good Morning🤗

I'm considering a nap before eating.

We were up at six for the garbage truck backing down the lane. Its glaring flood lights atop the truck looked like a UFO coming in to land here.

that would sit on top the couch looking out the picture window, and protect us from squirrels. Little guy would go nuts whenever he saw a squirrel 🐿️.

Having waffles 🧇 with butter and maple syrup; side of fresh blackberries; and coffee with Italian sweet cream creamer.

Love knowing each morning, I have my DU breakfast pals to get me started.

Hurry back IrisBlue. I need that hot mug of tea 🍵 image to start my day. 🤗
