Get some cereal–the sugary kind.<\/p>\n

Maybe a little booze.<\/p>\n

Some pop tarts.<\/p>\n

Bacon, sausage.<\/p>\n

Invite some people you love over to eat it with you.<\/p>\n

They’ll bring more cereal, pop tarts, pastries and \u00a0booze.<\/p>\n

They will show up in their jammies, eat cereal, drink coffee, smoked Bloody Mary’s, mimosas and beer all day, \u00a0disappear into the garage to do who knows what, watch basketball, make a beer and snack run, get pizza, stay up playing cards with you, spend the night, have breakfast the next morning and even move furniture for you.<\/p>\n

There will be exploding bottles of ginger beer complete with glass shrapnel but only very minor bleeding. There will be exploding bottles of 7-Up with no injuries except to the general cleanliness level.<\/p>\n

The kitchen will be sticky all over in spite of several rounds of cleaning. The floor will be a disaster area. There will be children setting up obstacle courses in the yard and sleeping on the sofa.<\/p>\n

There will be talking, hugging, laughing, more hugging, more talking and more laughing.<\/p>\n

It will be loud.<\/p>\n

You will be exhausted and happy.<\/p>\n

You will not mind the extra mopping the next day, or cleaning ginger beer and 7-Up off every surface of the kitchen.<\/p>\n

Then you will know that the secret to having Cap’n Crunch Brunch has very little to do with you and everything to do with the kind of people who are willing to spend the day with you doing nothing but hanging around in PJs eating really bad food.<\/p>\n

Just brunch? No way.<\/p>\n

It’s another chance to recognize how many really wonderful people you know, and how wonderful life is.<\/p>\n
