    Oh my, Annie! Which one to choose?! I rarely eat breakfast foods. I either eat leftovers from dinner or I cook up a hamburger. But now that I know roasted strawberries and mascarpone crostini counts as breakfast – I’m on it! Lovely!

    Breakfast is my favorite meal…especially when someone wants to make it for me! Regardless, you have some great ones on here and I can’t wait to get to it, even though it is suppertime!

    I tend to eat the same breakfast everyday, Annie – toast and avocado. So I love all these different choices you are sharing – such good ideas. I particularly want to try making the bagels – they look amazing!

    I am such a breakfast fanatic. If I was faced with all of these options at a breakfast buffet I would have so much trouble deciding what to choose. Maybe a bit of everything!?

    Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and now I’m starving–plus, I’m in a yogurt-with-fruit rut right now. I’m going to have to try a few of these recipes soon. I’m thinking bagels first (because bagels are always the best!). Have a great week, Annie!

      Bagels are the best! And these are no exception! Yogurt with fruit sounds pretty good right now, too! 🙂

    I think breakfast/brunch is the BEST meal of the day! Especially if its on a lazy Saturday morning and in good company. I don’t know where to start first, Annie – totally drooling here!
