Imagine this: One of those, some soft cheese (Gruyere, peut-etre), a slice or two of some good salami, real orange juice, and coffee roasted the day before and ground two minutes prior... yum.
I was in France on one occasion. The answer to any question that we asked wherever food was served, was always, "Croissant?" It became a running gag with us. We would at times, pose a complicated question to the non-english speaking French just to see if we would get the "croissant" answer. We were instrumental in getting the French to couple the words "crazy" and "Americans".
I can has real butter and cream cheese? Hey, just asking.
I think of those poor dumb people I saw on the news last week already camped out in front of some damn store , waiting to be first in line for the sales and I thought to myself, we need a damn good cold front go through with freezing rain for a bout a week.
Only the material possessed would venture out at those hours to those stores to wage warfare with other like-minded, two legged critters. Now the enbigginatable pictures you post of your so delicious dishes comes oh, soo close to torture to us here in HOTR land. (but don't you dare stop!)
I'll take the sleep, thank you, and the croissants, too! Started off the day with a slice of Bacon Explosion, eggs, and cheese on a bagel (no croissants, durn it).
Pastry, even though I was up at 0530 for PT on the coldest morning on the steppes thus far this fall (15 F). I don't care for crowds, happy, frenetic, spending or otherwise. LittleRed1
I try to avoid the local news outlets during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. The pictures and video clips of "Black Friday" madness make me wonder if we're beyond the tipping point as a society.
Crazy? No. I was thinking more along the lines of practically perfect. ;) Working is a heck of a way to make a living. I'm trying to work a couple of endorsement deals (for instance, I drive a Mustang so shouldn't Ford pay me for the advertising like they do those race car drivers?), but for some reason no one is returning my phone calls...
Get up before dawn for Black Friday shopping?

Or go straight to the boat and have some coffee, do a little fishing, take a nap. . .
Do you even have to ask?
What was the occasion to have so many longhorns in NE Indiana?
An oh-so-wise choice. There's nothing on sale out there that I can't live without, but those croissants are to die for.

Croissants, homemade or otherwise.
Nothing on earth can get me out in the stores tomorrow.
No Black Friday shopping here, either. :)
So you will get up at OMG:30 to hunt, but not to shop?
Hmmm...

Good call! (assuming your view on the prospect of shopping in the chaos of the sales is the same as mine and you didn't bother!)

Cheers from Maryland's Eastern Shore!

I would like for you to weigh in (is that a bad phrase for females?) on my question regarding humanizing animals on my blog.
Larry - get real(lol)
No shopping for me today, except via online. The croissants you posted are an inspiration for me to bake today though.
Hope you and Barkley had a great Thanksgiving!

Labs can be very intelligent. I had a female named Raven who was dialed in with me. She knew what I wanted by my body language.
