Since the morning is always a hectic time for my family (no matter how early we get up!), a breakfast that I can grab on the go is key. My sister recently introduced me to these Breakfast Balls. They are so easy to take with you when heading out the door. Check them out for yourself!

In my family, we love to gather for breakfast! During the holidays it is one of our favorite type of gatherings. Usually my mom makes an egg bake, using my sister in law’s recipe, while either my sister or I bake a sweet accompaniment or some sort of yummy treat. One of my favorite types of recipes to bake are scones!
Now since it is officially fall, you know what that means… Pumpkin flavored treats are everywhere, and I’m loving it! This means that every morning when I wake up, I can start my day off right: with pumpkin flavor in my coffee. Coffee is definitely part of my morning routine and I recently started using International Delight flavored liquid creamer. They have an amazing line of holiday themed flavors, including Pumpkin Pie Spice. What better way to match delicious scones with comforting coffee than tying it together using the same flavored creamer in both recipes?
So in preparation of the holidays, I’m getting in the festive mood with holiday flavored coffee, and holiday themed baked goods! As I mentioned above, pumpkin flavors are quite hot right now! I actually made pumpkin flavored scones the other day for my friends and they loved them. So why not make the same scones for my family come holiday season?
I know I’ve mentioned this many times before here on my blog, but as a working mom, my mornings are always rushed! Seriously, extra time? Nah! It does not matter even if I wake up half hour to an hour before my usual wake up time. For some reason I still am in a rush to get out the door.
Now breakfast is probably the most important meal of the day. It recharges both the brain and body, and boosts your metabolism in the process! This is why even during the most chaotic mornings, I make sure both my son and I have a breakfast to enjoy. Just sometimes I have to enjoy mine while walking out the door, or even once I reach the office. Trust me, I wish sometimes I was a mom that would have the time to make scrambled eggs and french toast with fresh berries and whip cream made from scratch; but I’m not. So I have to work with the time and money I have, which is why I’m always on the lookout for breakfast savings!
