How to Plan Breakfast In Bed

Breakfast in bed is a real treat for anyone who likes to be served and pampered. Many people plan a breakfast in bed for someone they love on anniversaries, birthdays and Mother's and Father's days. It's easy and fun to do, but the real reward is the joy on the face of the recipient.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Breakfast tray
• Small vase
• Rose or carnation
• Napkins
• Place setting
• Coffee or tea
• Small glass of juice
• Toast
• Pats of butter or margarine
• Jelly or jam
• Eggs, made any style
• Sausage or bacon
• Hash browns

1. Set a time and day to serve breakfast in bed. If it's for a special occasion, you already have the day; you just need to know what time the person will be waking up.

2. Encourage the recipient to linger in bed for awhile. Most people need at least a few minutes to fully wake up before they're ready to eat.

3. Cook the eggs, toast, meat and potatoes, and make fresh coffee.

4. Place a flower in a vase and set it on the breakfast tray. Also put out butter, jelly, napkins and a glass of juice.

5. If this is a special occasion, hide some personal coupons on the tray that entitle the bearer to a candlelight bubble bath or personal massage. Placing little love notes under the coffee cup or plate is also a nice surprise for your loved one.

6. When the food is done, place it on the tray and give the arrangement a final once-over to make sure the recipient will have everything she needs, such as sugar, salt and pepper.

7. Carry the tray to the bedroom and set it gently in front of your loved one. Give him a kiss and tell him to take his time and enjoy it.

Tips & Warnings

• You can substitute the egg breakfast for cereal with toast or pancakes.
• Bring a newspaper or a favorite magazine for your loved one to look at while she eats.
