The day before Christmas we went out for groceries. Since there is so much entertaining it always feels like I am buying groceries. The fridge is full, but soon after it's empty again.
I was also given a little jar of caramel bourbon vanilla sauce, which I have discovered, is crazy delicious with oatmeal. I have approximately a week to consume it all and we were out of oatmeal. Clearly, getting hot cereal was a priority of mine. I didn't feel like eating honey nut cheerios for Christmas breakfast.
I told Don of my grocery intentions, and he suggested we all ride together as a family. Dougal too!
We hitched up the trailer to winter Kona. Don just had a new winter bike built up, but his trailer hitch hasn't been put on yet, so I was left with the towing duties.
It was a good work out! Plus, I was super over dressed. It wasn't even cold.
When we reached the Sunterra, we ran into Oliver.
He and Don were all excited about Don's winter ride, and Oliver took it for a spin.
Nothing like spending some quality time doing ordinary things with my boys.
Oliver happened to finish shopping the same time as us, and he lives in our neighbourhood too, so we all biked home together! That's what I love about biking, the quality family time, and also the unexpected friend-time you often stumble upon.

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy piano teacher; the day before xmas, you say? i seem to vaguely remember seeing a couple of people loitering around the south campus area (with a contraption that looked similar to your trailer). They were friendly tho....... Anyway ,oatmeal yeah reminds me of this magizine article i read last century; something about even if a person was a vegatarian if they ate a fair amount of pasta and maybe oatmeal too over the course of a year they would consume at least 5 pounds of meat cause of all the insect s ground up with the product at the factory
