Every chance I get, I always seem to be recommending "let’s go get brunch." I mean, it's the perfect meal! Going out to breakfast requires you to get up way too early. However, prime brunch time is between 10:30 a.m. and noon, it's just fabulous for people who like to sleep in.
Also, let's be honest, some people, like yours, truly, could eat breakfast food all day every day. But we all have at least one friend that doesn't like breakfast food. This makes going out to brunch the perfect compromise, cause you can choose between breakfast or lunch.
Plus, brunch is a time that you can try out your cutest outfit, those new shoes, and look your best because that’s what people do when they brunch. They get all dressed up at 11 am just to go eat, then change immediately into sweatpants once they get home.
But what could possibly be better than consuming mountains of food and an excuse to dress up? Taking pictures for all the world to see, to show that you are truly thriving with your Instagram-worthy strawberry waffles. Plus, since everyone is all dressed up it works as the perfect photo-op for candids.
But what truly makes brunch special is how it brings everyone together. I love meeting up with my hometown friends during a break to catch up, and of course, gossip. Having friends a few states away can be tough because, with all the conflicting schedules, you don't always get to talk, so it's awesome to meet up with some waffles and eggs benedict.
Lastly, for my 21 and over friends, what truly makes brunch the best is the excuse to drink mimosas. Who doesn’t feel classy drinking one of those, plus it makes the whole ordeal that much more fun.
Yes, I do have to admit, brunch is a very basic thing to do, but it is undeniably my favorite thing to do.
