Wedding planning is OVER. And I hate to say it, but I’m glad. Except that now I seem to be a bit lost and cannot find my mojo back to do things that are NOT wedding planning related.

I need to jump back on the bandwagon and the best avenue to do it is getting back to planning my monthly Chica Brunch. If you are new to Sweetbites - a little recap. Every month, I invite a group of girlfriends to my house and host a Sunday Brunch which I have named CHICA Brunch (chica is Spanish for girl, and I call all my girlfriends that – so I figure it would be fitting and it stuck). The way it works? I ask each of the girls to bring a brunch dish to share and I contribute with the booze – mainly mimosas and making sure my house is sparkly clean.

There’s not a person in the world who doesn’t love brunch. But you know who loves it the most? Ladies. Chicks. Gals. Women. Whatever you call us, we’re obsessed with brunch. I’m not saying that guys cannot be found partaking in this ritual, but let’s be honest; a pack of ladies yapping away over French toast and eggs is more common.

I can write all the reasons why I love brunch and let me tell you there are many… Who can say no to the pastries, quiches, frittatas, eggs benedict or sandwiches, and crispy bacon of the breakfast world? Not to mention the opportunity of having fancy drinks (I’m looking at you champagne!) during the morning hours, on a Sunday no less, while sharing the latest war stories with your girlfriends.

If you answered yes to that, you are dead to me.
