Before I forget ... last night I had a snack. I had a mini baby bell cheese and 5 crackers:
This morning I got up and got brunch ready. Our friends are in town from Calgary for thanksgiving so we invited them for brunch today. I ate a small Glo Bar while getting brunch ready, since I was up at 9:00 and we weren't eating until 11:00.
I set the table, and started putting the spread out:
Strawberries for the whole wheat waffles:
Fruit for the chocolate fondue dessert:
We made whole wheat Belgium waffles with strawberries and fresh whipped cream, bacon (duh), and mini frittatas.
I had half a waffle with strawberries/ whip cream:

And 3 mini fritattas (I went back for one more after this helping):
And about 10, 000 pieces of bacon (I took 3 to start):
Altogether now:
Our lovely friends showed up with a bottle of Champagne and some POM wonderful :-) No wonder we like these people! We made mimosas obviously.
And because it was 5:00 somewhere, I decided heck ... why not have an orange mimosa as well:
I chased it with coffee.
We finished our brunch the only logical way - with chocolate fondue.

This wonderful meal kept me stuffed all day. I spent the afternoon having tea with my dad, going to some show homes with him, and then my dad took me out for supper to Korea House where I had Bee Bim Bop (hot stone - sorry no pic - but it is the same as what I had about a week ago).
I was going to do homework tonight ...
but homework makes me want to vomit so I decided not to.

Bibimbap! haha! Was it in a hot stone bowl?
WOW, whole wheat waffles, mini fritattas (which are adorable!) and chocolate fondue - sounds like the ingredients for a perfect get-together!!!
Just last week I bought my very first box of mary's crackers, I'm now an official addict. hehe
That brunch is definitely drool worthy! lovely blog!
Sophia - yep, it was!! It is definitely my favourite meal in the city :-) I am addicted!
that is a gorgeous brunch! wow!
and i'm kinda in love with your table. is that weird? i love dark wood like that.
Brunch looks wonderful, the frittatas, bacon, the waffles oh my. I've never had a chocolate fondue before, did you melt the chocolate first and then the candle keeps it hot, or does the candle melt it? Do I sound like a total plank :)

Eating Machine - No that's not weird ... I am in love with it too! It is the one piece of furniture that I plan on keeping forever! The hubby and I got it as a wedding gift from his parents. It reminds me of the 3 little bears story for some reason LOL :-)
Taylor - You melt the chocolate first (we put the chocolate in a small pot, and then put the small pot in a larger pot of boiling water, so that the chocolate doesn't burn). The candle keeps it melted. It is SO good!
i really like your blog :)
your breakfast spread looks so gorgeous!! i love the idea of mini fritatas! yum yum
The mini frittatas look yummy, the bacon even better (I love bacon!), the champagne and Pom -definitely after my own heart, and the chocolate fondue the perfect ending! Altogether a great brunch. (I'll pass on the waffles because I would fill up on all the other things....)
What a great brunch! Love the idea of a chocolate fondue dessert. I bet your friends were very impressed with the spread
