Today was decidedly one of the nicest November days in the history of days, as Gzmoohoo would say. Andy and I had plans for this afternoon, so we decided to take advantage of the unseasonably warm weather this morning and take a short bike ride. Here's me, all dressed up and ready to go:
It was a bit too chilly that early and we were under-caffeinated, so we biked over to a coffee shop along the river.
I do love a latte now and then. But, as Andy noted, "Do people really pay this much for coffee EVERY day?" Also, it turns out we were not the only people in Minneapolis today who had this idea:
It was a beautiful morning to be outside and we enjoyed every minute of it. Though we didn't get in a huge amount of miles, it was nice to get in a bit of exercise before our afternoon plans. Andy's parents will be out of town on Thursday, so they had us and Andy's brother (Brad) and his girlfriend (Lily) over for a late lunch. Brad & Lily brought their dogs:
Mimi, aka Moo-Bear
Rubio, aka Rubs
They are tiny and energetic and Calvin outweighs the two of them combined. But they are definitely an excellent source of entertainment. We had some delicious lasagna and good conversation. Plus, you know, the dogs are somewhat cute. But no one is as cute as Calvin.
Awww, my boys.
P.S. Happy Birthday to my cousin TJ. 14 is just way too old, but I hope it was a great one! Here for nostalgia is a link to one of my favorite videos of all time. TJ Running Down the Dune. That will never not be funny.

Sometimes it's not just about the caffeine. A tall skinny latte just tastes good.
Those lattes look like hot chocolate.
PS My third try to prove I am not a robot.
Santini - Yes indeed, those are our town/errand-running bikes. I need to get something to put on that rack on the back to hold groceries/farmer's market items.
