Sunday Morning Brunch

Every little thing reminds me of her this morning. Honestly every day is like this, but going to use this morning to explain it.

Sunday mornings were usually chill days with M. She loved breakfast and brunch. Breakfast was her favorite meal. Sunday mornings were also her favorite day of the week. We always had music on and it varied to whatever mood we were in. Brunch was often her meal to make or joint effort.

This morning I started my day with coffee. Coffee is something M got me hooked on. I never liked coffee before living with her. If you ever been to our house you know how important coffee was to her. Always having a BIG variety of coffees. Now with me added in we have different syrup flavors too. This morning I am drinking from a cup I gave her for Christmas 2018. We were practicing being more mindful of the moment. Staying grounded and present in the now. She loved that cup.

Next I made omelets for Wendy and I. I wasn’t much of a cook before M, but there were some things that even as I learned and became a good cook still made me go - nope not doing that. Omelets were one of those things. They just seemed too hard to do. M made amazing omelets and ended up showing me that I was overthinking it. They aren’t hard at all. I made mushroom and cheese omelets today and thought of her.

I plated my omelet and it was all her again. The plate she bought because she liked the colors and design on it. She got it at World Market and I wasn’t with her. When she got it home, we realized it match a teapot she got me from there for one of my birthdays.

I took the photo in this post and was just going to post it to instagram with the caption of brunch at the Spoon Castle. Spoon Castle has it’s own story, but will save that for another time.

I realized in that moment all of these things while I pulled the cup out of the cupboard, while I made the omelets, while I plated my omelet, while I sat and listened to music with my Sunday morning brunch - every little thing, all the moments of the day are her - because of her.

I wish we were creating new moments together and glad that I have all these moments every day that come up to keep her with me here.
