one of those mornings

I'm writing as a batch of ginger, walnut scones are in the oven (adapted from the New Joy of Cooking, Oatmeal Date - I use whole wheat pastry flour, oats, crystallized ginger + walnuts. Easy peasy since they use melted butter and are drop-scones.) Naomi, Leon and Marcel are coming over for breakfast soon so it felt like one of those mornings for scones. I'm a bit hazy from a bout of insomnia last night so I put some coffee on, well decaf, but that's enough for me. It must be time for breakfast as the quiet children I woke up to are more animated. I just heard Eva singing, "I had a beer for breakfast..." - thanks Johnny Cash. Top of the morning.
