Welcome to Brunch Week 2024...........
Christie of A Kitchen Hoor's Adventures invited us to join her on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday this week in sharing Brunch Recipes. Something about Spring makes my thoughts turn to a nice leisurely meal with an assortment of foods suitable for breakfast or lunch and a table decorated with daffodils and tulips.
Many of us enjoy sharing brunch with our moms on Mother's Day coming up next Sunday. With that in mind, I was happy to join in this event so my readers have plenty of brunch ideas.
