Good Morning!
What do you do when you wake up at 4 a.m.?
Put the coffee on...
Make a stew to simmer in the slow cooker all day...
And listen to/watch the Olympics on TV.
Isn't this how you all start your day? *wink*

It looks delicious, stay warm.
ReplyDeleteBeen happening to me a lot lately - up by 5 always, sometimes at 4. Since I hand quilt my quilts, I have something to work on, but only after coffee. Today, I have to get ready to go to my yurt to get it ready for a weekend rental, so no quilting until I get there and I warm it up.
ReplyDeleteStorm not coming until 4:00? You must be in northern Maine?
Oh - and my mother used to have those spice bottles! They really caught my eye!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful way to start the day! Stay warm!
ReplyDeleteMy days always start at 4:30. No coffee for me (but plenty of Diet Coke, ha!). That stew looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteI like the way you think - stay warm and safe and enjoy the stew and games!
ReplyDeleteWe're getting walloped here today and I plan to sew too
I woke up at 4:10 am and could not go back to sleep. I was in the sewing room working by 5 am.
ReplyDeleteMy days start early to...but not at 4...more like 5:30!
ReplyDeleteLooks as though you are all set for the day!
Stay warm,
Carolyn
Sounds good Kaaren , enjoy your lovely meal during the storm , stay warm :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah, should I bring my jammies?
ReplyDeleteIf i leave now, I can be there for 4 pm lol!
ReplyDeleteWhat do you do when you wake up at 4 am...GO BACK TO BED LOL! Hope the storm doesn't take out your power, they talking LOTS of SNOW for us :(
At that hour I grab a book, go to my recliner, and read until I doze off again. If that doesn't happen, I get up and sew!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, maybe I need to put a stew in the oven this morning. Don't think I can make it to your house in time for dinner. : )
Good way to spend the day. We are getting hit with the snow now, but our end will get rain too, will be a mess, so good day to stay inside and create.
ReplyDeleteDebbie
The stew looks so yummy. I have angel chicken in the crockpot right now. We have some pretty strong winds here - hard to see the fish houses on the lake. Good day to stay hunkered down and stitch don't ya think :).
ReplyDeleteHugs - Karen
Sorry about the storm. It finally left our neck of the woods and I guess you must be getting it! Glad you can stay in! That stew looks really good. XO
ReplyDeleteI would love to visit, but cannot leave the sunshine and snow. I put some chili on ths a.m. Greetings from middle TN!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great start to the day Kaaren. I would love to come hang out with you all day. Smelling the stew cook, stiching the day away waiting for the storm to blow in.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day inside and stay warm!
It's a good thing that dinner will be ready that early because it will soon be bedtime for you if you are up that early. ;-)
ReplyDeleteSadly, I'm snowed in here in GA or I would be right over. The stew looks wonderful, would you be willing to share your recipe? I love making crock pot meals in this cold weather! Stay warm and safe.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember the last time I got up at 4 ~ I'm more of a night owl.
ReplyDeleteThe stew looks yummy ~ dinner at 4 you say?
Stay warm and safe!
Snowing and blowing here in WI
Prim Blessings

Perfect food for the nasty weather coming your way..
ReplyDeleteStay safe!!!

Well, I do that every day, Kaaren - NOT! Glad you made such good use of the time - I may just give it a try myself - maybe.....
ReplyDeleteCheers!
I'll be right along, and packing my snow shoes just in case . . . . Bringing dessert for later. Thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteI'm up that early every day and unfortunately, this time of year, my day starts with me outside shoveling snow.
ReplyDeleteYour coffee and soup look great. I'll be right over -- as soon as I've finished shoveling us out again.
That looks so good, I can smell it all the way here in NY. We've been having ugly weather all day and expect more snow tonight. With all the snow this winter, I feel as though I might as well be living up north in Canada.
ReplyDeletelike you I am an early riser, kettle goes on, after layers of clothing and 2 pairs of socks to keep me warm then I get on with the blogging, sometimes can take a couple of hours to see what everyone has done and try to comment on most posts. Can now picture others up early, nice to know there are a few of us up and about so early
ReplyDeleteDear Karen,
ReplyDeleteyou are so right about waking up at 4 am.
Coffee, olympics and I usually start to handsew or stitch, so I can play a little with my "toys" before going to work.
Greetings,
Sylvia
I would love to pop over and share a pot of stew while it snows. I could spend hours looking at all your lovely works of art. As always, enjoy your blog very much.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to know I am not th only woman in the world up at four
ReplyDeleteUp in north western NB we were supposed to get 14 inches, so far we've had about 5. No school today (although daughters friend had to call our house early this morning, "just to check" when I was enjoying my sleep). Stew looks good, I should make something like that for tomorrow! yummy! Happy sewing!
ReplyDeleteGotta say, I am so sick of these sleepless nights and early mornings. I think we need to form some special quilting group!
ReplyDeletesadly, when I get up at 4:00, I'm getting ready for work...
