Brunch Mania

I have always been a fan of breakfast. Waking up on the weekends to Mom's Pancakes or Dad's French Toast was always a treat I savored.  Even though KB and I are grown, sometimes Mom still makes us Mickey Mouse shaped pancakes! I often still ask for mine with chocolate chips.

After I posted a recent pic of some mimosas I made, one of my best friends, MC said that she "created a monster". It's true, I have brunched a lot with her, as we have been spending a lot more time together recently. She got engaged late last year and asked me to be a Bridesmaid! So exciting!

Over the past two months, I have either traveled to see her or she has come here for a visit - and we have had brunch every time. I love the idea of Brunch! A combination of breakfast and lunch, paired with coffee and mimosas, always hits the spot. I am fortunate to have weekends off with my current job - which is a rarity in the baking and pastry field. I can sleep in and enjoy a late meal.

So this Brunch excitement got me thinking. If I love Brunch this much, a lot of people probably do as well. I recently contacted Christine from Cook the Story and we are excited to be planning a Blogger #BrunchWeek in May! If any fellow Food Bloggers are interested in participating, you can e-mail Me or Christine, and we'd be more than happy to give you information.

Until next time,

LOVE & CONFECTIONS!
