Breakfast is the best meal…my vote, what’s yours?

Saturday, July 10th, 2010

I love to make my family breakfast as many Saturday mornings as possible. We set the kitchen table and chow down on Belgian waffles with fresh blueberry sauce, eggs, bacon and orange juice. I love my waffler and cooking, but being together in a rare sit-down with my family of four is the best part of it.

Breakfast wins for me as the best meal which I could eat any time of day. What is your vote?

Three family things to do in Temecula, CA

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

For a quick local trip, us newbies to the Temecula-Murrieta area enjoyed the following:

The Temecula Berry Co. blueberry farm where (until July 11) you can pick your own berries right from the vine, enjoy a drink and soak in the incredible weather we have here.
Try the Saturday Farmers Market in Old Town Temecula where lumpya, fresh fruit, veggies and unique items can be purchased. Kettle corn is a favorite but the strawberries and veggies we got today where tops. Matheson’s Food Co. has some amazing sauces that we picked up. Support your local farmers.
Of course, you must stop if you are in Old Town at Cafe Bravo where one of the best locally roasted coffees I have ever had can be purchased in whole bean, or served by one of their gifted baristas. My son, not a coffee drinker, loves the Italian sodas they make. Also, their selection of teas–made hot or iced–are well stocked.

You have any local places to recommend here in SoCal (or from where ever you are)?

Scones, Latte and Newspaper make for a nice Saturday AM

Saturday, August 1st, 2009

My wife and I enjoyed sleeping in and then this brunch: English-style scones, homemade espresso latte´, and the morning newspaper! The scones are homegrown to Temecula, CA and are amazing. (You can purchase the scones at Delaney’s where they come frozen and pop right into the oven). Delaney’s has its grand opening today in Old Town Temecula.

What’s one of your favorite breakfast/brunch things to share?

Breakfast fun with my son: Swing Inn, Temecula, CA

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

My son and I split a short stack of pancakes and side of bacon at the Swing Inn Cafe in Temecula, CA. Certifiably, we were both completely full with one pancake each! I have been to this favorite cafe in Old Town Temecula several times and recommend it.

Whats a favorite breakfast spot for you? Please share!
