How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Easy Sunday Mornings

in Everyday on 07/15/12

In our house weekday mornings are often hectic and rushed.  Breakfast is all too often something quick and nutritious most of the time  but one thing it is not, is pretty!  So when Sunday mornings roll around one of our favourite family traditions is to slow down, brew a big old pot of coffee and get our cook on.  No brunch in our house is complete with bacon, eggs and Dempster’s Bagels stacked high and made to each family members very specific specifications. 

Dempster's Original Bagels

Dear daughter one is a purist.  Her Dempster’s Bagel is plain.  Toasted.  If she is feeling fancy a wee bit of Herb and Garlic Cream Cheese.

Daughter two is all about a bagel toasted twice for extra crunch factor and slathered in as much peanut butter as it will hold.  Hmmm melted into all those crevices, who can blame her? 

Hubby’s goal is to see how much stuff he stack on his Dempster’s Bagel!  He takes that little ring of goodness adds butter, cheese, bacon, egg and more cheese.  It is one messy masterpiece!

Me.  I’m a BBLT girl.  Um that Bagel, Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato.

Heavy on the bacon!!  So many mouth watering variations! 

So tell me, how do you take your bagel? 

Disclosure – A thank you to Dumpster’s for sending over the perfect Kitchen Aid 4 slice toaster to create these bagel creations.  The opinions on this blog are my own.

This week we felt all kinds of spoiled in our cozy accommodations in gorgeous Scottsdale.

All because #Homeexchange provided us with a unique - almost free- way to stay in Arizona and see all the things! 

We had such an amazing time we’re already planning our next adventure!
