The Weekend of Breakfast

This weekend was about indecision and gluttonous breakfast. As college "kids", we either get up for class and skip breakfast or sleep through to lunch so the joys of an over starched breakfast is a rare pleasure. So to fix this food imbalance of our lives, we planned to have a huge breakfast cooked by everyone who wanted to cook and eaten by anyone willing to wake up at 10:30 to come hang out.
The indecision of the weekend came as a not so silent partner to our inexperience. When I went to kroger, I just started grabbing all the breakfast foods I passed. I grabbed english muffins (cinnamon raisin and regular) Bread for toast, bread for french toast, bacon (turkey and swine) a dozen eggs, frozen hashbrowns, orange juice (high pulp and no pulp), bananas, pancake mix, waffle mix, and even champagne in case anyone wanted mimosas.
And that was just what I bought or Doug already had at the house. This list doesn't include the watermelon ConeZone brought over the Elmers' Grits enriched with garlic, paprika, cheyenne, and the incomparable butter.
Needless to say, the kitchen was packed with both food and friends. In our hilariously small kitchen, I counted 7 people at once contributing to this breakfast feast or walking through the human traffic jam to acquire coffee.

Will Hart kept energy up with coffee and a shared passion of bananas foster. Matt Barberio powered through Mario 64 keeping the kitchen free of even more foot traffic, Doug was overseeing my bacon making insuring I didn't burn down our luxury home while making his own sausages, David shamelessly promoted a brand called Oxo and after hearing his sales pitch, I am now in the market for a vacuum sealed coffee mug. Laura Elmer was all over the place being abundantly patient with boys whose passion for this breakfast far outweighed any organization. She kept the kitchen clutter free and clean which made the small kitchen usable by the shortsighted rest of us. I also believe I saw her with some chocolate infused waffles at one point but everything was a blur so I can't be sure.

So even with minor grease burns, lack of personal space and not eating until noon, breakfast was a success!
