Sunday Morning, Brunch, Pre-Dinner Snack

Hi Dad! Since Sunday is a little different than most days, this menu is a tad different in terms of the *times* you're going to be having your major meals.  Instead of a big breakfast, this breakfast is a little smaller, so that by the time you get back from Mass (let's say you go to 11am or 12:30pm Mass), you will have a substantial Brunch after.  So, before Mass you should have two small-ish snacks, depending on when you wake up. If you wake up in time for the first snack, then by all means go ahead and have it. If you get up later and miss the time for the first snack, just have the second one, then go to Mass, then come back and have your Brunch.  If this doesn't make sense just text me! I will be in Rome, Georgia at the Peer Leader Retreat but I will have my cell on me, so please text me if you have a question. I love you!

** You can add 2 hard boiled eggs (one egg white, one whole) to ONE of the snacks (morning or afternoon) if you need it and you happen to be near a Wawa**
