This past weekend I had a perfect Saturday morning. I slept in until I woke up without the aid of an alarm clock and drank a leisurely cup of coffee. Took a lovely walk to a breakfast place in the neighborhood that I've been meaning to check out for a little while. I ate an excellent breakfast of eggs benedict, blueberry bread, and as much coffee as I wanted. I loved the atmosphere, the color of the walls, the friendly set up that reminded me of a friends home.

Then, as I paid our ever so friendly waitress it turns out that this was to be the last morning that they would be open. They were closing and the building was changing hands to new owners!

The moral of the story is, try new things early. Or something.

serious bummer! Well, I guess you're glad you went when you did. It looks delightful!

Your morning was sounding perfect - until the end. Glad you made it before they closed.

Good for them for keeping up the high standards until the very end.

What a shame. There have been a few times over the years where places on my list to visit ended up closing before I had a chance to go, but at least you made it for their last day. Maybe the change of owners won't change the atmosphere? I'd go again in a few weeks to see how different it is.

How sad! There is nothing quite as nice as a good breakfast joint!
