Monkey Bowl...

makeshift monkey bowl in Jersey (note: that fork is actually plastic!)

Mornings around here can be slow going some days and since I'm responsible for the preparation of 99% of our meals, I can be slow going in the morning, too. On occasion I can beg and plead to Dane for breakfast and can get him to whip up an egg or two...but recently all I've been craving is a big bowl of fresh fruit.  When it comes to fruit I'm hardly picky---so I have had him assemble a breakfast that I now refer to as a 'monkey bowl' due to its resemblance to something you might feed to the chimps at the zoo.  Bananas, berries, melons...you name it, I'll take it...piled high in a bowl and topped with a little bit of honey...or if you're really feeling sweet, brown sugar.  Paired with some early morning sun and a barrel of coffee, I've got the sweetest perfect morning. 

 

mornings aren't always Ranger's thing...
