Do you ever have one of those mornings where you wake up and know it's going to be a good day -
for no particular reason?
Saturday morning, I woke to sunshine pouring in my bedroom skylight and birds singing -
and I had that feeling.
Greg decided to go for a bike ride that involved several miles of steep uphill grades.
Yeah... I took a pass on that one
- and decided to head to the local farmer's market instead.
One leisurely stroll by all the market stalls, and I settled on a cup of coffee and a sticky bun to keep me company as I sat and enjoyed the beautiful morning.
This musician played some foot-stomping music that had the children twirling in circles as the adults swayed to the rhythm as they strolled around the market.
So - while Greg was enjoying great views from atop Stratton mountain,
I was enjoying views of the morning market
-oh yeah, and a sticky bun
(Pretty sure Greg didn't have a sticky bun)
Your morning sounds lovely :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, such a wise choice!
ReplyDelete:) i like your choice.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a wonderful morning... wish I had something like that :) Hope u had nice time at market. Coffee and bum, a good combo!

ReplyDeleteenjoying a beautiful summer morning with a sticky bun and live entertainment sounds good to me!
ReplyDeleteI would have chosen the farmer's market (and sticky bun) as well! Sounds like a great morning :)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you at the market as well!
ReplyDeleteSticky Bun or steep hills? Hmmmmmmmmmmm..... don't need to think that one over. Sticky Buns win for sure.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing quite like waking up on mornings like that is there? Sounds like it was a perfect morning indeed :)
ReplyDeleteWow did Greg ride up Stratton Mountain? That's near my old stomping ground of Bondville. The sticky bun does sound good though!
ReplyDeleteOh sticky buns rule! You definitely had the better deal. Markets are so much fun. Steep hills, not so much! :)
ReplyDeleteNothing like a sticky bun at the farmer's market to make me feel alive!...:)JP
ReplyDeleteI love sticky buns and Farmer's Markets! Sounds like you took the better deal! xo
ReplyDeleteI would say that a sticky bun listening to some toe tapping music has biking uphills beat any day of the week.
ReplyDeleteNothing better with some good fiddling than a good sticky bun. We have some good music sometimes at our farmer's market but the sticky buns aren't the greatest.
ReplyDeleteI have a favorite spot at the Capital City Saturday Market here in downtown Boise where I sit and people-watch over a cup of coffee on Saturday mornings. It's the BEST! Everyone seems to be so filled with joy there.
ReplyDeleteOh the market, good music and a sticky bun.... I am sure he will be coming with you next time:) B
ReplyDeleteBoth of you had a super morning. Let's leave the judgmental stuff out as to whose morning was best. I'd take both of them. You can really set a mood for your posts.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a win/win for both of you.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, sounds like a perfect day!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fabulous morning!
ReplyDeleteCoffee and fiddle music would get my feet dancing..What a nice outing!
ReplyDeleteA sticky bun! Oh, I haven't had one of those in years. My mouth is watering now.
ReplyDeleteThe fancy stars across the musician's shoulder has me wondering what it was.
Sounds like you had a wonderful morning.
I love the fiddlers vest..views over a sticky bun, no contest!
ReplyDeleteI love outside musicians! Glad you had a good morning. :)
ReplyDeleteI would take your Saturday morning over Greg's any day. A perfect start to the day. Great photo of the fiddler!
ReplyDeleteIt's a good relationship when each party is free to pursue their own muses and not feel any competition or bitterness. Love your photo Karen.
ReplyDeleteI like your choice better!
ReplyDeleteSticky Buns wins the race ~ Great shot and what a delightful day you had ~ Happy Day ~ ^_^
ReplyDeleteSounded like a super relaxing morn ...everything is relaxing when you are at the farmers market with a good cup of coffee and a sticky bun.
ReplyDeleteHI Karen I'm glad you had a good morning. The sticky bun sound 'yummy'! Margaret
ReplyDeleteKaren, I am with you...I will take your adventure over your husbands. A sticky bun shoulds perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'm shopping in the wrong place! We don't have entertainment at our farmer's market - some pretty good tomatoes though ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe time at the market sounds much more enjoyable. ;-)

your morning sounds better!
ReplyDeleteYep, coffee and a breakfast sweet. Better. I like that shot. You can say a lot without showing faces of the public.
ReplyDeleteIf I wake up and I'm still alive, I congratulate myself. PS: I find your photo fascinating. The only reason I give is that is pleasing to the eyes.
ReplyDeleteFarmer's market with live,USC, coffee and a bun sonds like a perfect Saturday! I know the feeling when waking up ... A lovely anticipating of what the day might bring with it :)
ReplyDeleteWe attended a wonderful garden stroll and tea over the weekend. And capped off the night with mac and cheese pizza. It was a great day!
