Welcome to On Sundays We Brunch Series Seven! I’m hoping this will be a time for us to talk about life like we’re really sitting together over brunch and share favorites…articles, recipes, products, books, inspiration, whatever it may be!
Brunch is my favorite because the spirit is light, you have the whole day ahead of you afterwards, and all food is fair game and it often involves champagne. Urban Dictionary defines brunchin’ as “Midday lunchin’ acting a fool in the mid-morning to lunch time”. Could there be a more fitting description?
Grab a mimosa, pull up a chair and let’s chat! Oh, and if anyone wants to act a fool, I’m game.
This last week felt so long, yo. I don’t know why, but I was on the struggle bus all week. And why oh why, do I have to be hungry all day at work???? I eat breakfast, lunch and a few snacks throughout the day and I’m still dying when I get home. The second I sit down at my desk, I’m already thinking about lunch and WHEN WILL I GET TO EAT MY LUNCH…and what’s for dinner??!? I can’t be the only one who has these feelings right? Or is it because 99.999% of my life revolves around food?
I have a few changes coming to the blog very soon! I’ll try to give you updates as they happen-but I hope you enjoy them!
