Weekend Breakfast

People say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day health wise. I do not know whether to trust it or not. As a staying home mom I would say that all meals are important equally to get energy boost. However, I do agree that nothing is better than to take it easy in the morning. Chill out in the bed and start your day with some proper “brunch” meal. Here are some tips for favorites in my small family. Let’s begin with the sweets!
