breakfast feast

For the lovely K's birthday we had a breakfast feast and movie watching pajama party. It was possibly the best Sunday morning ever!

My breakfast board on Pinterest was our food-spiration:

One of the best parts of this birthday celebration was that it was a three course breakfast!

Breakfast appetizer = Lemon-Blueberry Yogurt Loaf from Sweet Pea's Kitchen. http://sweetpeaskitchen.com/2011/05/15/lemon-blueberry-yogurt-loaf/

Verdict: Amazing. I am a huge fan of citrus flavors so I loved this bread! (I would really call it a cake...it's all sugar and lemon and not bread-y at all.) If you are less of a fan of citrus it may be overpoweringly lemony. The recipe had a lot of steps but they were worth it in the end.

(***EDIT - I made this bread again for my grandmother's birthday brunch but made it in a 9" x 13" pan instead. big mistake! It got too gooey and spongy. I will always make it in the bread loaf from now on!!!)

Breakfast main dish = Bacon, Egg & Cheese Wreath from Bacon Time with the Hungry Hungry Hypo's blog.

Verdict: YUMMM but I will bake it longer next time since the crescent roll parts that were under all the fillings were not 100% done to flaky goodness. Also, I used turkey bacon and it tasted just fine, but next time I'll try it with regular bacon to see if there's a significant difference.

Breakfast dessert = Reese's Peanut Butter Bread from Cookies and Cups' blog. http://cookiesandcups.com/reeses-peanut-butter-banana-bread/

Verdict: not peanut butter-y enough but still delicious. Next time I would put more than the 1/2 cup of peanut butter that the recipe called for.

I would definitely say that this feast was a huge success and I look forward to K's birthday next year so we can do it again!
