    Breakfasts of Champions (and Royals!)

    What is the difference between breakfast and brunch? Don’t actually answer that because truthfully, I don’t care about your petty semantics. What I do care about is the entirety of breakfast-related food stuffs.

     

    Not only is that morning meal (whatever you choose to call it) the most important of the day, it’s undeniably the most delicious. You can fight me on that if you want—I’m right and nothing you can say will ever change my mind or my stomach.

     

    In my opinion, Hobbits definitely have the right idea… Breakfast. Second Breakfast. Elevensies. Sign me up!

     

    Now that I’ve said my peace, let me offer you this on-brand awkward transition to some events coming to SteelStacks that I want you to know about, in the spirit of my love of breakfast.
