    I really am glad to see a new spin on breakfast. I may try the cheesy breakfast casserole or even the overnight brioche bread. Whichever is simple is probably the best choice, I have zero interest in cleaning up dishes and wrapping paper.

  2. Leslie says:

    These all sound fantastic! I can’t wait to try them. Thank you for sharing.

  3. heather @french press says:

    SO many reasons why breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! thanks for including my breakfast tart

  4. Christina @ The Beautiful Balance says:

    That’s awesome that your mom special orders almond paste! It is pricey and that’s why I always make it at home but it really isn’t the same as a french almond paste!

  5. Melanie @ Carmel Moments says:

    Amazing round up Tiffany! Makes me so ready to plan my Christmas brunch menu. One things is for certain: it always includes cinnamon rolls. I had no idea you could make them in a slow cooker!

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    P.S. Love your photography skills.
