On the course!
:shrug:


My old man used to always go on Sunday, and get a dozen doughnuts and some hard rolls. He loved his hard rolls and butter! He would sit at the table and take a knife full of butter and swipe it on the roll and take a bit bite. Then, he would take another big wad of butter, and repeat the process until his roll was gone. He loved that butter!

I always loved the apple filled maple iced Persians! I still get those to this day. Anyway, the bakery was a regular Sunday stop for us, and I wonder how many others did the same thing? Maybe your family had a different Sunday breakfast regiment?

Every Sunday. They don't have those bakeries down in NC like they did in NJ where I grew up. Just the smell alone was worth the price of admission.

Always, always in a white box with the red and white string.

In the '70's we'd go to the bakery once a month for doughnuts....Willow Street Bakery


Growing up Sunday's was bacon, eggs, hash browns or fish cakes all cooked in a cast iron skillet.....We still do it to this day, the kids refer to it as "are we having a BIG BREAKFAST in the morning?"......During the week mom would put a pot of water on the stove with a steam tray on top, take bread/muffins/rolls and steam for a couple of mins....butter & jam....damn good


My mother grew up in the depression so most of our week was structured for meals.....

Monday: Roast/Chicken/Turkey Potatoes/Veggies/Gravy

Tuesday: Leaf overs mixed together into a hash in the skillet

Wednesdays: Pasta

Thursday: Whatever was on sale, burgers/dogs/soup/chowders

Fridays: Fish/Seafood

Saturdays: Baked Beans, Brown Bread....Pop Corn watching tv

Sundays: BIG BREAKFAST, if there was leftover fish from Friday, Fish Cakes.....Pizza in the Afternoon & baking muffins for Monday mornings.....


That woman could stretch a dollar, still tries now at 90......:0008

Our bakery was and still is always closed on Sunday.

The hard rolls I think are definitely a Wisconsin thing. I have had them with brats, and they are very good; I just don't see them around here.

My parents, moreso my dad, were recent immigrants when i was born, so while they've assimilated to some degree at this point, in my youth we followed my dad's traditions. Tyoical sunday breakfast was chorizo and eggs

We would stop after church with my mother this was our payoff for reluctantly going to church. I don't know how it is now but you couldn't eat before accepting Ho;y Communion . My favorite was the twist doughnut with sugar & cinnamon. She always allowed us to eat one on the walk back home.

Nope....

Nope....

I never do, sweets just don't do it for me anymore. Sometimes when I am tired at work I'll sneak a few mini reeses peanut butter cups or mini twix. Besides a bit of sugar in my morning coffee, I barely have any sugar anymore. I think part of this is due to my wife being a type 1 diabetic, but I have adjusted nicely to not having much sugar over the years.

I used to walk to the bakery every Sunday with my mom and get something for that day and sometimes but not often she'd buy a torte or something. I did the same with my daughter and still do but we have to walk a bit further now. I imagine I'll always do it with my two new grandsons as well.

When I was growing up we made Sunday breakfast, eggs, bacon, biscuits and when we were out of biscuits we would have breakfast tacos. I'm not big on donuts
