Sunday morning bacon was a huge part of my childhood. My mom would pull out her old griddle and make the whole family crispy bacon and her famous egg sandwiches. It was a special way to spend the weekend together. When I smell the smell of bacon frying I still get a pang of nostalgia for those lazy Sunday mornings I spent as a kid.

Now that I am a mother of three I try to keep the Sunday morning brunch tradition going but with my own twist. We are often too busy on the weekends to go all out but every now and then we will have breakfast for dinner. This is where my kids first tasted what they now call “fancy bacon.”
