Paul’s Birthday

This is why I haven’t been running…

It’s been freezing out. Yes, I do have long johns to wear under my clothes when I run, but I don’t have any desire to get out and run. I’m so not going to be ready for our first marathon in May.

We celebrated Paul’s birthday today and went out to breakfast. Sills Café.

This is a normal sized plate. The scone is huge! They are known for their scones, so we had to try one and they are wonderful!

The cinnamon roll was 3 inches tall and barely fit on the plate. The cinnamon roll wasn’t that good. I would skip this one next time.

When we ordered three desserts we didn’t know they were going to feed the table, plus the tables next to us. This one is the apple fritter. Out of the three desserts we tried, this one was excellent! I would stand in the parking lot for another hour to have one of these.

Oh, the rest of our breakfast was really good as well. We will split plates next time. We had a lot of wasted food. The portions were huge!

After breakfast we took Eli to Little Beakers. A real science lab for kids.

We were there for about an hour and Eli did four experiments. He did the classic mentos in soda, made a tornado in a bottle, and another one I can’t remember. I guess it wasn’t that great if I can’t remember it.

The last one was kind of fun. He made snow.

This was a cute place. I think this summer when it’s so hot out, when we need something to do indoors, we will come back here and try out the other experiments.
