Often times, since Mr. Sweet is OLDEN and retired (shhhh) ...not a really strict schedule anymore, at all...
we have a nice, leisure BRUNCH...sometimes as late as 11 a.m....
**
**
Both of us love a late breakfast...and, boy, are we hungry when we wait this late..
**
***
...and we LOVE eating in the library end of the living room
because.....we love eating and watching tv..or reading...
Now, that may seem rude....but we don't mind....

You do have an eye and a hand in the kitchen. Can we come over sometime and would you share? We like pancakes too?
Hi Dear BJness! Oh, I love your beautiful table and I love seeing your food. I know you're a wonderful cook. Pancakes are my favortie meal - breakfast or dinner.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Love the table and the food, BJ. The table is so cheerful and festive...Christine
Hi BJ
Your breakfast table looks so festive. I love the black and white!
I do love those polka dots of yours! Everything looks wonderful...and yours has real food. I will admit that we rarely use my tablescapes, unless the girls show up for coffee. We have become "sit in front of the tv" people too since the nest emptied.

Hi dear BJ....I love it all....the pretty table and the food. Your pictures always have such texture! Everything just makes me smile.
Sending you a big hug!

BJ, I think this is wonderful. Enjoy life!
Your table looks so pretty, and your brunch looks delicious.
I'm sure your sweetie loved it, too.
I love your table as always and the food... yummy! Gorgeous centerpiece, giftbox with a ribbon tied-simply beautiful. Love the candles too:) Enjoy your evening!
Hi BJ!
Your brunch tablescape is wonderful. I love that black and white table to pieces! And I really love pancakes and bacon!

BJ, the pancakes look delicious! Love your black and white dishes. We, too, often eat brunch and often in the study with the TV or a book in hand. Oh, the life of retirement! ~ Sarah
What a pleasant way to start the day. Love the flowers and those pancakes made me sooooooo hungry!
Oh BJ ... pancakes, maple syrup and bacon ... YUM ... my very favourite breaky!! Couple of eggs, a ring of cooked pineapple and a banana to boot and I would be in heaven! Thanks for stirring up my appetite ... I am starving.
WaSandi @ Bearly Sanermest hugs,
Oh I love this. Love the red, white and black combo. Love the playfulness of the pokadots!! Nice nice!!
Hi BJ...
Amazing...hubby and I had brunch this morning! Pancakes!

Susan

BJ, it's late, but I wanted to see what creative tablescape you did this week, and I wanted to visit.
I love this cozy and warm table. I am looking for a small round, drop-leaf table to put in my family room, so my Bobby and I can eat in front of the fireplace.
I love the black and white. Very beautiful! Cheery and warm and just so you! I'm glad I visit!
Yvonne
That table looks fabulous! Mmmmm, I want pancakes :O) B x
BJ, Repeating myself, I wish I lived closer to you to be able to enjoy your home, you and the great food you fix. I would not be able to get through the door very long.
Pretty table as always and I love to read also when I eat.
Barbara
Hi BJ, I love your beautiful table...From the gift box to the polka dots....Everything is perfection... Merry Christmas

I think that most of us eat in front of the TV, BJ; I know we do. I don't feel it's rude. Now, at Thanksgiving, the TV is off, of course, but on a day-to-day ...
bj,
Wonderful table. We like late breakfast as well. This retirement stuff is good. We also like romantic dinners for 2. I love to cook and we plan the dinner all week. China, silver, crystal - the whole works.
Carol
BJ, I love visiting your blog! You have the most welcoming pictures. I wish I could come and share a cuppa something with you. You are a lovely lady!
BJ! This is just tooo beautiful - and let me tell you - PANCAKES ARE MY FAVORITE! YUMMMMMMMM!
I just love coming here. Jenn
Your brunch looks so good; but I'm sure we couldn't get by waiting that long to eat. It looks wonderful for supper at our house. You just can't beat bacon anytime!! Enjoy getting ready for Christmas. Sally
Hello Bj, I love when you use your red and black. So fun and festive. I would be hungry by then too. In fact, I am hungry right now. It is past 12:00 and I haven't eaten a thing. I guess I'll have a leftover cheeseburger. I made them last night.
I know your food eaten on the prettiest tablescape in Texas was delicious. BIG smile.
Love you, Jeanne
BJ, this has been done so beautifully, these photos should be framed and hung...lovely...and I'd love some of those pancakes and bacon! Yummy!
Sandi
Awww... Does Mr. Sweet appreciate it when you set the table so pretty??
Justine :o )
What a nice table to begin the day, it makes me smile!
Sister and I always watch TV while we're eating, but never in such style as you!
Nice to be back blogging and visiting again, boy I've missed everyone. All the holiday cheer I see is definitely cheering me up!
BJ, everything looks so pretty. I like the candles tied together with the pretty ribbon. Guess what I just had for supper? Pancakes and bacon. Woohoo. It was delicious.
What a perky breakfast table! This would really get me going in the morning -- love your red, black and white! So fun.
Oh, BJ...I want to be retired, too...so I can eat a nice late morning brunch in the library...you lucky girl, you! Now I have to run to the store to buy bacon...boy, that looked yummy! Love your breakfast tablescape...so cheerful and just right for a nice casual meal for two. :-) Susan
What a nice warm post. I love breakfast best too and brunch, even better! Love the idea of setting a table near the library. Sounds like you all have a very peaceful life.
What a joy to visit you for brunch, BJ. I love the black, white, and red. Your Mr. Sweet is one lucky guy.
Beautiful table...and I love the black/white & reds. The food looks delish too!
Beautiful....I spy a Mackenzie-Childs pot...I'll be seeing Victoria and Richard on Sunday! I just adore the Courtly Check pattern
What a warm and wonderful holiday post. Everything looks delightful and delicious. Have a great Foodie Friday.
Such a cheery table and I love the red box with the flowers. Your rooster prints on the wall are very nice.
You certainly have an incredible talent. How lavish you make a lowly pancake look! My favorite of your incredible ideas is the candles ties with a ribbon! Thank you for the great ideas!
