Winter Breakfasts: Pancakes, Waffles, French Toast ~ Oh My!

Over the holidays, breakfast was the source of some good family time. There was the Christmas morning Eggs Benedict and Chicken Sausage, then that trip to The Pancake House. OMG, we cast calories to the wind and indulged on jumbo Apple Pancakes, Strawberry Crepes, Thick sliced Bacon, and Gluten Free Pancakes. What fun! When someone gets up early and indulges you with a  bountiful breakfast, they do it with love.  Go ahead, show someone a little love this weekend.
