How to Brunch
If you’re anything like me, you understand the difficulty that comes with deciding whether to go sweet (pancakes, waffles) or savory (eggs, bacon) when you go out for breakfast. No matter the occasion, it is without a doubt going to be a hard choice for me to make. Kendall and I went out to the diner in town with two other friends of ours (shout out to Francesca, an Admissions intern last summer) for breakfast yesterday. As I perused the menu, I realized that I truly couldn’t make a choice between pancakes or eggs…so I didn’t. I don’t know why I hadn’t this stroke of genius in the past, but I chose not one but two dishes for my meal. While I had never had eggs benedict in the past, I ordered half an order of eggs florentine (tomato and spinach instead of ham bc veggie) and it was amazing. I also ordered a child-size belgian waffle, despite not being under 12 years old. No need to ask for fruit on the side either, because it surprised me with fresh strawberries AND bananas. I was delighted. And very, very full.
After finishing every bite on both of my plates, we walked back to campus, uphill, in the heat. In perfect conjunction with the weather (unlike Saturday…), we had planned on going to Lake Dunmore for a swim that afternoon, where I still found room in my stomach for pita chips and hummus. Even though I’ll start working with ResLife and Orientation in just 2 short weeks ~*~so excited~*~, I’m really enjoying this whole end-of-summer thing.
