If you give an Ag Girl some rain, ultra early in the morning, she will be so excited by the glorious sound of rain pit patting on the roof that she will be unable to get back to sleep. So she will leave the safe, warm cocoon of her bed and head downstairs.
Once downstairs, she will realize that she is cold, so she will add wood to the fire.After the fire is blazing, she will decide that the warmest place to lay down is on the living room couch beside the fire, despite its complete lack of blankets.
So she will search the house for a suitable blanket, immediately disregarding any that are too thin or too thick in a Goldilocks like manner. Once a perfect blanket is found she will attempt snuggling under it, but will realize that she forgot a pillow. The process for finding the blanket will be repeated until a nice fluffy pillow is found to accompany her on the couch. 
Then, the Desert Ag Girl will snuggle under the blanket with her head resting on the pillow only to realize that the couch is not snugly enough, so she will pull the sheepskin onto the couch and settle on top of it with her pillow and blanket.Finally comfortable the Desert Ag Girl will settle back to sleep, only to awaken a few minutes (in Desert Ag Girl time, in reality it was probably an hour or so) later to find that the rain has stopped and it is now much to quiet to fall asleep.
Resigned to being awake, she will realize that she is hungry and, although it is only 5:30 am, she decides to make breakfast. Searching the web, she decides to make these lemon walnut muffins from Add A Little Love. The muffins come out of the oven at 6:30, just as her family begins to stir. First Dad, then Obie, Mom and finally Brenna wake up to the aroma of heavenly muffins.
At 7:00 the rest of the family is energized for the day with delicious muffins, but the Desert Ag Girl has fallen asleep. Finally.
