Today got to a pretty lazy start due to me having several events last night. Can you say exhausted! I was happy when my daughter said she was getting up to start brunch. Best Kid Ever!! She wanted to make waffles! So waffles it is! She pulled out the waffle maker and started making them. She also put on a pot of water for the yellow grits and crack some eggs for the Southwest scrambled eggs. By the time I dragged myself out of the bed all I had to do is cook the eggs and add the grits to the boiling water. Sweet!! I love that my daughter has such a love for food and cooking. She is definitely following in my footsteps. I loved to cook and be in the kitchen with my mother as a child and even now as an adult. It is one of the best bonding experiences you can share with your child.

Brunch is my absolute FAVORITE meal (there’s this adorable little restaurant around my house where I go every Sunday for brunch.) Waffles and Southwestern Scrambled Eggs sound like the PERFECT brunch food ❤
Me too!! I’m a super fan of brunch!
I’ve been fixing my son a lot of eggs and tortillas or waffles or even toast with jam. it’s a really well rounded meal besides being a homey type of feel for your tummy
Brunch is always so much fun and it has to include grits. It’s my favorite breakfast food. Your brunch looks lovely!
I love grits!!
That’s so awesome that your daughter got brunch all started for you. I really need to get better about teaching my kids in the kitchen. Sounds like a delicious brunch.
I started cooking with her at an early age. Teaching especially how to be safe in the kitchen. Now at 8 I know she’s able handle herself without me constantly looking over her shoulder.
That looks so good. I can’t eat when I first wake up and it’s about 10 or 11 before I start getting hungry so I pretty much have brunch daily.
You’re a brunch expert then!
Aw that looks really good. My daughter also likes to cook sometimes, but I am still waiting for brunch on the weekend!
Start dropping hints! Lol!
I love having a leisurely start to my day and a relaxing brunch sounds like a great idea. Those eggs sound like they have such a delicious flavor profile!
Those eggs were delicious!
That is so great that your daughter loves to cook! I would love someone help me make brunch on a lazy Sunday.
I love her passion for food!
I love having brunch so much and glad your daughter enjoys being in the kitchen and cooking. Now I need some waffles
Go get one!!
Yum! What a great way to start the day. I could have gone for some brunch today!
Yes it was!
I can’t wait for the day when my kids actually get up and start breakfast on the weekends. That sounds amazing, yellow grits. I’ve never heard of them.
Yellow grits are fantastic. Grab some the next time your at the grocery store!
I absolutely love brunch! My husband, who is from Italy, still won’t accept the concept but I’m still trying to convince him to love it as much as I do!
Brunch is the best thing ever!
Having a brunch with friends and family is a great day to start good vibes.
Yes indeed!
That sounds like a nice brunch. It is great that you were able to enjoy some quality time with your daughter.
Yes cooking is our favorite thing to do together!
I am envious! I get lazy in the weekends too, but I do wish my daughter would surprise me with a brunch! I’ll have to start training her how to make more than just a bowl of cereal! Haha!
lol! Yes start that training now!
I definitely need to take more time with breakfast. Having a nice pretty plate that tastes good can surely brighten your day!
Yes! It will totally get your day started on the right foot!
This sounds like a great brunch menu! I love brunch. I can only hope one day my kids will want to cook, lol.
Everything was delicious!
Waffles are great but sometimes I do find them a bit hard to have in the morning as they can be very sweet! More of a savoury morning person.
I know what you mean. We usually use a mix that is not very sweet and let the toppings shine.
Brunch is always awesome!! I could have gone for some brunch yesterday!
Yes indeed! I love brunch!
