So we’ve all heard it. “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” I know what you’re thinking. Ugh, another post about why I should eat breakfast. I promise I’m not going to tell you that you must eat breakfast. Although I do eat breakfast every morning, and do believe it’s a good way to get going. (But that’s beside the point.) I’m also not here to lecture you about healthy choices. Think about breakfast as more of the experience of making it the most important meal of the day.
I believe breakfast being the most important meal actually has more to do with whom and where you are having this meal. Our lives at home and work are often so rushed. It can feel like we jump out of bed, dash around to get ready, grab our caffeine, and blast out the door. Love you! But, isn’t it nice once and awhile to sit down across from someone you care about and ease into the day? Isn’t it nice to take time for yourself and experience the day at a different speed. At a Bed and Breakfast that first meal is one of the most important things we do for you. A fulfilling breakfast experience is one of our hospitality goals . Breakfast is so important to us it’s in our name. Breakfast is part of how we wrap you up with love before you start the adventures of your day.
So, I encourage you to feel the sense of peace that comes from someone else being happy to make you a unique breakfast, serve it to you, and then clean it all up. Take the time you need to plan your day. Savor the flavors. Try new tastes. Observe your surroundings. Maybe even meet new people. Think about what makes today special. If you are sharing breakfast with someone, think about the paths you have taken together to get to this special meal. Look at the person across from you and feel the love that comes from having a friend, old or new. So, yes, I think breakfast is the most important meal of the day and you are the most important person experiencing it. At Banks Bed and Breakfast, look forward to serving you.
Mary
