my breakfast today

Nothing like homemade granola, yogurt and fresh fruit to start the day off right... 

anniversary brunch

We chose to celebrate our one year with brunch at one of our favorite spots, the café inside The Modern. With their ever-changing menu, I chose the vegetable risotto cakes (I'm a sucker for anything with poached eggs) and Kyle ordered the steak sandwich (he's a sucker for anything with mushrooms). Spent the rest of our day hanging with the dogs, watching old movies curled up on the couch. Yea, we're total homebodies and we don't mind one bit:)

happy friday + heart grilled sandwich

Happy Friday friends! I hope you like the few modest changes I've made to the blog recently...I plan on making a few more so please excuse any crazy-that-does-not-look-right sightings you might see in the upcoming weeks. I had a slight freak out moment last night where I thought I deleted everything and am still recovering...

Oh and how cute is this heart grilled sandwich made of strawberries, mascarpone cheese and nutella? It looks insanely delicious to me and perfect for a little breakfast in bed this weekend.

See you next week!

chocolate croissant

I don't know about you, but I could really use a super buttery, flakey, gooey chocolate croissant this morning...what a whirlwind of a weekend. Promise I'll be back to my blogging self tomorrow...Happy Monday!

blackbird bakery

You know I love breakfast. Well I recently discovered Blackbird Bakery on etsy, Texas's first gourmet gluten-free bakeshop. Based out of Austin, they offer a wide range of treats from biscotti and banana bread to gingersnaps and apple pie...And while I am not actually allergic to gluten or suffer from wheat sensitivities, their desserts are so delicious, I actually prefer them to the "real thing"!

i really love breakfast.

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, because it's what wakes me up from my post-sleep, semi-groggy state...not to mention there are so many options that you really can't go wrong.

That's why I love Jon Huck's photographs of real people and what they eat for breakfast.

While I can occasionally relate to the guy who eats pizza in the morning, there are some strange ones too (i.e. guy with toast topped with avocado slices)? I admit, my typical daily breakfast looks something like this:

Oh and you can even order the coffee table book as a gift!
