Books and Breakfast

Books and Breakfast. My husband (seen above) and I enjoy breakfast or a later brunch on weekends. In fact, this is one of our favorite activities. We connect, enjoy a leisurely meal, and are able to spend some quiet, down-time together. On ocassion, we take a long something to read. On these book-reding days, we enjoy extra coffee or a second latte as we flip pages and absorb words.

While we may be doing our own thing; finding our attention focused in our own book topic, we're spending time together, our feet or fingers always touching. I think this Saturday calls for another such event!! Oh yes.

And you, as a book lover, should schedule time too. A few great Calgary & area diners / cafe's that we suggest:

AKA Wine Bar (Great brunch on weekends) - 709 Edmonton Trail NE, Calgary, Alberta
Diner Delux - 804 Edmonton Trail NE, Calgary, Alberta
Bumpy's Cafe - 1004 8 Street SW, Calgary, Alberta
Heartland Cafe - 825 - 1st Avenue NE, Calgary Alberta
Communitea - 1001 - 6 Avenue, Canmore, Alberta
Galaxie Diner - 1413 - 11 Street SW, Calgary, Alberta
Dairy Lane - 319 - 19 Street NW, Calgary, Alberta

Wherever you live... find somewhere that makes a freshly pulled espresso latte, or makes fresh, loose leaf tea; settle in with your spouse and read! Make a great day of it.

This is one of my favorite things to do and I'm always on the search for new cafes that don't mind leisurely visits while I read.
