how did it started?

I have been asked how did I come up with this breakfast idea?

It happened so, on last summer where I was craving for some sweet stuffs like sweet rolls, cake, pancakes to name a few. These could be easily get from the shop but often too sweet for my taste and so I had to make them myself. First by checking out recipes and videos from Tube where I bumped into Jamie Oliver's cooking series, that baguette with guacamole grilled chicken looked exceptionally good that inspired me right away(it appeared in our first breakfast's menu without the chicken...hehe). Then, I heard myself saying out loud Breakfast+Coffee in Multicultural Center Gloria, thats the only place I know that one can make idea happens. Excited about the idea, immediately I shared it with one of my good friend, Gaby where she was in Malawi that time, doing her training and will be coming back to Finland before the summer ends. She loved the idea and instantly agreed to be part of the project. The next day, I brought the idea to people in center to get it official in their calendar. They loved the idea.

Other than that, Im a morning person, though I dont get up at 5 or 6 in the morning but I have made getting up early in the morning as a habit since I dont have a job, Im not working for anyone, I would start my day slow and easy, a cup of cappuccino with book or sometimes making art before making myself a good set of breakfast(not breakfast anymore by that time, brunch I would say) before going out to meet and talk with people or handle some official matters.

And starting this year, this project is funded from my own pocket. So, people who has been working hard, having a job they like or dislike, always in hurry and no time for making breakfast, I think they need to spend at least an hour in the morning/brunch time to come and enjoy a good homemade meal on a nice friday. If your job requires mainly a portable computer and wifi, bring it with you, set up a temporary cubic at matara's lobby or if the weather is awesome, get out there and work.

Till then,
have a nice sunny days :)
