French toast for a beautiful morning!!
Many nights when we get in bed I ask Matt: “What do you want for breakfast?” You might think it’s too early to be considering breakfast, but since I’m always the first one up I’d rather ask him then than wake him up from a snooze in the AM!
His reply: “Cinnamon Chip French Toast”
So first thing this morning I got to work!
Topped with mashed grilled banana, granolner and sunflower butter!!
With a floral garnish ; )
I also brewed Choffy mixed with coffee!! 2/3 choffy and 1/3 coffee. Matt had his iced and said he could taste the chocolate but thought it tasted just like coffee. This cup was stronger than last week’s and I liked it lots.
I am SUPER exciting to do housework today!!! 3 loads of laundry and some cleaning + organization. My favorite pasttime when life gets busy!
But first – to the market!
Andrea @ a farmer in the dell says
That breakfast looks divine. I am always thinking about breakfast as I lay in bed at night. It’s what gets me out of bed in the morning. That plus a strong cup of coffee!
Miranda @ Working Mom Works Out says
Me, too! That’s b/c the busy doesn’t seem as bad when my house is clean. Weird.
Hannah says
Aw, you’re such a kind wife! I love your reasoning behind asking at night time 🙂
Sara @ myfancytuna.blogspot.com says
I’m so jealous of your breakfast…I’m dying to taste some Great Harvest bread!
Sarena (The Non-Dairy Queen) says
Now that’s the way to wake up on a Saturday morning! Have fun today, I’m cleaning too!

I haven’t had french toast in ages. Gotta have some soon, specially with grilled banana!
Enjoy your cleaning today 🙂
Christine says
I rarely enjoy housework, but when I was working on my master’s my house was spotless because I preferred that to paper-writing!
staceyhealthylife says
Enjoy your day of catching up around the house.
Coach Brian says
Looks positively yummy! I once had Banana & Nutella stuffed French Toast after a race. I think it was the best post race meal ever.
Alyssa says
I love cleaning too 🙂 Something about mindless work with a quick perception of how much you’ve accomplished is so gratifying!
Amanda says
I love the accent on your plate; very beautiful and classy =) I love reading your blog every day.
The Teenage Taste says
That french toast is gorgeous! 😀 😀 😀
Lauren says
Mmmm looks so perfect, I love french toast but I definitely don’t make it often enough!

“3 loads of laundry and some cleaning + organization. My favorite pasttime when life gets busy!”–
A little tongue-in-cheek but honestly, I do love to organize and stay on top of things when life gets crazy. At least if my house is clean and neat, I feel like something is going right 🙂
Molly @ RDexposed says
I want that mug! And I get excited too when I finally have a good amount of time to tackle housework!
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen says
We have the same discussion each night too. I love looking forward to breakfast the night before! Enjoy your day at home.
Lenna says
Looks like a lovely breakfast! 🙂 And Choffy + coffee sounds good (and kind of cute:))
Angela (Oh She Glows) says
I wish I had your enthusiasm for cleaning. Im doing a huge Spring Clean today and all I can think about is how much I want to be outside right now! It does feel awesome though when it’s done…a great way to get the weekend off on the right foot.
Loving the floral garnish 🙂
kaila @ healthy helper! says
So is cinnamon chip cinnamon bread with chocolate chips or bread with cinnamon chips?!?! Either way its gotta be amazing!
KathEats says
It’s cinnamon bread with cinnamon chips!
Rebecca says
When you can work around bread 24/7, plan bread, bake bread, and slice bread all day long and STILL crave bread for breakfast, you know you are in the right business!
Michelle (The Runner's Plate) says
I love cleaning and doing laundry. I love the feeling of being organized and having everything in its place!
Kate (What Kate is Cooking) says
I have that bread and am planning to make French toast out of it too 🙂
Tori (Fresh Fruition) says
French toast is the best. I love how much it reminds me of being a kid and watching my dad dip the bread in the eggy cinnamon mix 🙂
Namaste Gurl says
Mmmm, french toast.
Have a great and successful day! 🙂
Anastasia says
I love the french toast and the little flower decoration.. so cute! I’ve never thought to try my coffee substitute mixed with a tiny bit of coffee. That may be a good compromise to all the caffeine I’ve been drinking lately!
Estela @ Weekly Bite says
Love the flowers on your breakfast plate 🙂 Such a pretty touch!
Natalia - a side of simple says
Pretty sure this should be a breakfast option at the bakery….just sayin’ 😉
lynn @ the actor's diet says
i’ve got a load of laundry still waiting to be folded from 2 nights ago.
SquatLikeALady says
I always plan out my hubby’s breakfast the night before too! 🙂 That is, when I’m up before him haha. Normally he has to be to work by 5am and I snooze until about 6 so we miss each other by two hours.
khushboo says
I totally plan by breakfast the night before…9 out of 10 times it involves oats. It’s just a matter of deciding what form
Kristi @ KristiAteIt says
That french toast looks delcious!
Cleaning is actually one of my favorite things to do. Well, when the weather isn’t gorgeous out (like today!) I think I like it so much because of the end result.
Morgan @ moments of mmm says
I have got to try this grilled banana! Do you slice it in half or anything? Or just throw it on straight up.
KathEats says
Yeah, in half so there’s a flat side
Holly @ The Runny Egg says
I usually plan out my breakfast the night before — if I wait until the day of I tend to choose breakfast which does not keep me full!
Holly @ The Runny Egg says
OK that is supposed to say I choose cereal which does not keep me full 🙂
Kristen @ Change of Pace says
I love making french toast with banana bread. I can’t imagine what cinnamon chip would be like! YUM!
Katie says
The french toast looks amazing! I can not remember the last time I had french toast!!
Happy Memorial Day Weekend!!
xoxo <3
Annette @ EnjoyYourHealthyLife says
mmm French toast on a Saturday. Perfection.
I also choose when I am in the kitchen (deciding what to eat)…I guess I am lazy about that? ha
Michelle says
now I want french toast…hmmm, well it is lunchtime!
Emma (Namaste Everyday) says
two things I love about this post:
1. French toast. I make it for dinner when I want something quick and comforting!
2. Cleaning. It’s INSTANT gratification! I always do it when I’ve been busy and stressed, too 🙂
What a great Saturday!
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
I always like to decide on breakfast the night before too. It gives me something to look forward to in the morning!
