I love food. Every day is a practice in discipline to resist eating everything. But when the holidays come around, I let loose! One of my favorite meals is Christmas morning. We break out all the good stuff...bacon, eggs, pancakes, bagels, coffee, orange juice. Surprisingly, the most complete Christmas morning breakfast came the year that our parents were out of town, so my brother, sister, and I rallied together to get all the necessary ingredients together. The cooperation between the three of us was probably the most impressive part. My brother, who never contributed to any meals, volunteered to prepare the eggs. My sister, who is usually a grumpy mess in the mornings, was relaxed and agreeable while cooking the bacon. Everyone contributed to the clean up, too, which was also way out of character. It was the best breakfast I ever had....seriously...EVER.
But it will be my goal to make this Christmas breakfast even better. I should start prepping everyone now...
