Sweet and Savory Conference

Today is General Conference Sunday.  We love the semi-annual occurrence at our house.  We are able to sit in our home and listen to our prophets and apostles speak to us about the things we need to be doing.  Every year we make a conference pool, we try to guess which apostles will speak during which sessions.  We cheer when we get one right!  We take notes and enjoy being together.  But the very best part is conference cake.  Between the morning and afternoon session, we have a great brunch, filled with foods that we do not normally have in our house.  The star of the show is the conference cake.  It is basically a coffee cake that has been renamed and repurposed.  It is delicious and we love it.  A close runner up is bacon.  Since I do not enjoy really anything about bacon, I do not like to touch it, cook it, or even eat it, it rarely makes an appearance in my house.  So the Conference Sunday bacon is a very anticipated event.  We throw in a great batch of scrambled eggs and some orange juice to make our meal special.  We look forward to this meal every year where we can enjoy good food and talk about what we need to do to stay on the right path back to our Father in Heaven.
