The Blog
Anyone who knows me can tell you that I love to cook and bake (and that I do so pretty well). In lieu of my pipe dream to open a restaurant or a bakery I decided to start a blog. Narrowing down a theme was difficult at first. I am a vegetarian so cooking with compassion came to mind, but it didn’t feel right. I thought about what I love about food and cooking/baking. And like most good ideas, it practically hit me on the head all of a sudden. I was online shopping for a waffle maker and discussing how dearly I loved breakfast foods with my boyfriend. Duh- I LOVE BREAKFAST FOODS!
Why do I love breakfast so? Well, where to start? Obviously, there are delicious possibilities. I always start of the morning deciding whether I am in the mood for sweet or savory and go from there. Moreover, breakfast is special! People do not often take the time to make a good homemade breakfast. Yet, it feels wonderful to experience one. One of the best feelings I can think of is waking up to the smell of breakfast in your house. My Dad was always the breakfast maker in our house, and now it’s my turn. I love getting up, starting the coffee and creating delectable treats and foods to brighten everyone’s day. Breakfast is so important- it starts your day, your metabolism, makes you feel taken care of, fills your house with wonderful smells, and the foods are next to heaven!
The Girl
Above all I am a mama to my beautiful and amazing baby boy, Elijah Nikolaos, aka Buggie. I also happen to be an artist and art teacher. I love reading, living in the city (Philadelphia), family/friends, animals, Audrey Hepburn, The Phillies, old movies, and clearly I love cooking and baking, especially breakfast!

Hi Breakfast Girl,
I do agree that breakfast is the most awesome meal of the day. Between the pictures and the loving and humorous way you discuss the recipes yo share, I get a good feeling as if I already ate them! Can’t wait to try them and read more. Cara is always raving about what she ate at your house. I can see why.You should put Buggy in one of your post pictures HE IS SO ADORABLE It would make even more fun to read!
Thank you and I am glad you are enjoying my blog! I think I will try to get a picture of my little Buggie in there somewhere. I will be making homemade baby food so I may do some posts on it and will have to feature the little taste tester.
I wish you good luck with your blog. I love to bake too. Probably you have tasted my brownies and my banana bread from Cara’s statch. I can’t wait to try your chocolate muffins.Wait until your son is old enough to eat them he will be your biggest fan.
Thanks for visiting my blog! I LOVE your banana bread, Cara has been sharing it with me since high school! Elijah already loves to watch me cook and bake, I hold him and narrate what I am doing, I can’t wait for him to be my little kitchen helper!
