Saturday Blog Surfing:Breakfast Edition

Did ya ever wake up, stumble to the kitchen bleary eyed, and wish that Mrs. Cleaver would meet you at the kitchen door, wearing a crisply starched apron, and holding a plate of steaming muffins, fragrant bacon, and fresh, seasonal fruit?
Yeah. Me too. Is there anyone that actually likes cooking breakfast? I think not.
So, I thought that this edition of Saturday blog surfing I would concentrate on great breakfast ideas. Things that caught my eye on the Internet, things that seemed like they would be worth getting out of bed for on a cold morning even if Mrs. Cleaver wasn’t anywhere around and the kitchen was dark, dismal, and messy.
Vee, who has a delightful blog called Tea and Scones, has this Tropical Christmas Bread that looks worth waking up for whether it is Christmas or not!
Take the Cannoli makes sour cream and banana pancakes. These look amazing and I would certainly wake up for them. Especially if someone else made them for me.
Bunny and Carol from Bunny’s Warm oven make cherry rolls. These are very much like cinnamon rolls but with cherry filling. They look cheerful, like they would fit right in on a table covered with a red gingham cloth in a kitchen scented with brewing coffee.
Banana Yogurt Bread on Eating, Etc seems like it would be one of those breads that you could make ahead and enjoy for a few days because it would stay moist.
Simmer till Done has Caramelized Banana French Toast. Why are you still reading MY blog, didn’t you hear me say caramelized. banana. french. toast.?
Mango and Coconut Mueseli at Not Quite Nigella seems like it would be a great choice when you were feeling crunchy.
The Delicious Life comes through for all of the breakfast lovers in the world with Strawberries and Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast.
My Rose and Cinnamon Scones that I snuck in over at Kettle and Cup are really good for breakfast, brunch, or tea.
Sweets, Savories, Etc. does Challah…mmmmmmm
I did have one more but somehow the computer got knocked when I was editing and I lost the whole link. I have no clue what it was or where it was…sigh. Probably because I haven’t had breakfast yet!

coffee. Coffee is worth forcing myself out of bed. Especially after agreeing to let the younger kids having a slumber party with all their neighborhood friends.
June Cleaver I am not. I would sure welcome her in the mornings.
I like cooking breakfast on weekends. But I can get impatient and just want to eat.
Thanks for the shout-out! All those delicious links will make this a long – and high-calorie – weekend.
Hi Marye,
How goes your Saturday morning? I hope it’s well! I posted a pink post on my Pinkie Tea’s blog for Pink Saturday (is that a mouth full or what)? and while I was doing it I added a link to your Cherry Almond Kiss post.
Something funny that I realized last night as I was putting up my post is that I too have the ability to taste recipes that I read…weird huh?
Have a great weekend!

O.k. Ginger, I give ya that, coffee is so worth it..

Marilyn, well…if you just look at them it isn’t so bad
Cori-LOL! well, it is weird, isn’t it?
