Booze and breakfast.
YES!
Also, Monday.
And Happy 4th birthday Living The Sweet Life 🙂 wooo hoooo!!
It’s crazy to think that I’ve been blogging for 4 years already.
If you could eat any meal for the rest of your life what would it be?
Mine, breakfast/brunch. Seriously – it outweighs lunch, dinner and dessert any day … and that says a lot!!
It’s all the pancakes, waffles, smoked salmon, bagels, dooooouuuughnuts. I want it all.
These pancakes are fluffy and full of fall spices, and the syrup – I could drink it.
Also, it’s totally kiddo friendly as all of the alcohol burns away ( wink wink… kidding, it does). Or you know, this could totally just be a parents only meal … if I catch anyone with a straw in the syrup … I’ll have no choice but to high-five you!!
