Oh boy, do I love brunch. There are not many things that make me happier than going to the diner on a Sunday morning and sipping on a cup of coffee with a plate of home fries on the side. The local spot is normally packed, but my besties and I never seem to mind. After all, everyone's just on the same mission to start their day off right — and we really can't blame them for loving breakfast food. Some order omelettes, and others are totally pancake people. From bottomless mimosas to a classic cup of coffee, your favorite brunch drink says the most about your personality, though. So, start thinking about what you're sipping.

I would love to be able to eat endless amounts of French toast during the work week. Imagine how much better that would make Monday morning!
