Always yummy in my tummy!

These specials were such a hit in 2023, did you know that we made them a weekly thing summer through early fall? The avocado toast is a new item. It’s a fav among our kids and us so we figured we should just put it on the menu for a simple & filling quick breakfast. As much as you love these remember to check the chalkboard for daily specials too!
