What’s your stance on cake for breakfast? I’m sitting here with a half a sheet of chocolate cake in front of me (leftover from a birthday party El Hub’s coworkers threw him), and truth be told, it looks a lot tastier than my usual gruel (aka oatmeal with almond milk).
It’s one of those talking cakes… You know the ones. This one is saying, “Ooh, Karen! Chocolate cake is the breakfast of champions!”
LOL! We’ll see how long my willpower lasts. I’m guessing about another five minutes, or until the coffee finishes brewing, whichever comes first.
And speaking of coffee, do you ever have coffee after dinner? I wish, WISH I could, but it would keep me up at night. If I have anything caffeinated after dinner, it’s straight to Insomnia Land for me.
Oh, but coffee with dessert is so divine, isn’t it?
Well, I guess that settles it. I’m having cake and coffee for breakfast today! 🙂

Me? Probably 14th century Italy. 🙂
hazakaza says
Weirdly, my makeup is LESS crazy during the weekend than it is during the week–sometimes I spend the whole day puttering around the house (working on various projects, cleaning, cooking for the week) so some weekend days I don’t even bother!
And my favorite dessert right now is this glorious plum upside down cake recipe I found. YUM.
Nivedita says
Hey! Count me in Karen. Today I was watching a youtube video and something funny made me laugh and I actually thought of Tabs. trust me, I’m not making it up. The beauty guru was doing her makeup and her cat at the back, was sitting next to a mirror and very carefully and gravely licking on her makeup brushes!!! I couldn’t stop laughing at how serious the cat looked!!!

Now that I’m pregnant I wear my make up very light. I just put concealer, little bit of blush, curl my eyelashes and put mascara on them, sometimes i add clear gloss to lips, i dont know if it’s the third trimester fatigue or not but it’s easy, fast and gets the job done, however i’m a huge fan of smoky eyes and i use to really put makeup on eyes, with eye liner, mascara, shadow, etc and the rest would b natural with clear gloss so hopefully i’ll get back to that after giving birth and with the help of your tips 🙂 and this gc to Sephora which is my favorite store! Thank u for the chance!!!

I recently read an article in Oprah’s magazine that talked about a study where people who at sweets at breakfast tended to weigh less than those who didn’t- eat that cake!
Ali says
I’m worried about my cat, he fell off my desk twice today. He’s been a bit clumsy lately and I’m starting to wonder if it may be a medical problem. I’ll probably make an appointment for him on Monday, if only for peace of mind…just the thought of something possibly being wrong with him is making me feel sick to my stomach. I’m an over anxious worrier when it comes to my baby… 🙁
I’m hoping it will be nothing like the last time I took him to the vet. I worked myself into such a state of worry, I was crying at the vet’s office! And it ended up being nothing at all. I felt so silly.
Jane says
My favorite dessert is Pinkberry!!! 😀
Lucy says
Awesome giveaway, I’m sure I could find something to tickle my fancy at Sephora! I’m usually a MAC girl, but I could make an exception!
Today, my man baked banana brownies and those suckers are delicious! They have the delicate sweetness and springy firmness of a banana bread with dense, chocolatey goodness swirled in. I bet they’d make a damn good breakfast with a mug of coffee. I think I may find out tomorrow morning!
Yao says
My favorite dessert… Hmm, that’s a tough one. I love sorbet. And flan/panna cotta/custard-y desserts. And anything with chocolate in it. And pie. I’m an equal opportunity dessert consumer. 😀

Tran says
My favorite dessert would be either tiramisu or ice cream but I love all types of desserts!
Amanda G says
I have coffee after dinner all the time. Oddly enough, because I’m ADHD the “stimulant” effect of the caffeine actually helps me sleep. Bizarre!
Jessica says
My favorite cake is carrot cake yum!!
Amber S says
Just this morning I googled locations of the cheesecake factory in my state because I just had those cravings. Turns out both places are on the far sides of the state and I’m in the middle. Boo.
Abbi P. says
I freaking LOVE dessert for breakfast, and coffee is a must, together I’m in seventh heaven and now I must find a way to make this happen for tomorrow morning!!! I also never pass up a chance for dessert and coffee after dinner, that’s a promising way for me to go to bed a happy camper. To be completely honest I’ll have it for a snack or replace my lunch with it if given the chance so yeah, lol, I’m bad and you’ve obviously found my weakness, oh wait especially if said dessert is chocolate, I LOVE me some chocolate!!! 🙂
Sophie says
I would eat chocolate cake any time as long as I have coffee to go with it. Caffeine overload!

Nicole says
Dessert is my favorite part of a meal!
Lisa says
Check this out. Devil’s food cake – super chocolatey and spongy dense texture. A scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. You eat half for dinner. Then put it in the fridge and the ice cream will melt and soak into the spongy cake, but the cold keeps it from getting mushy. You end up with this cake-ice cream hybrid breakfast of fabulousness.
Danielle B says
My favorite dessert is strawberry shortcake with vanilla bean ice cream on top!
Alyssa S says
Wow winning this would be so amazing! It would help me feel so much more confident while caring for my newborn! Oh, and I like baking cakes and pies, I do it for a living! 🙂

I’m totally for cake for breakfast! After I bake a cake I can eat it for both dessert AND breakfast. Luckily blogging keeps me occupied, otherwise I’d gain SO much weight with all that cake!
Julia, June's abstracts says
I never liked cake. I thought is was too sweet and heavy, until I started working at my current job. Oh. My. God. There’s so many people working there and they’re always celebrating something or maybe someone’s retiring and everyone is crowding up in the cafeteria giving them flowers and – eating cake. I don’t dislike cake anymore.
merry says
I’m totally for cake for breakfast! After I bake a cake I can eat it for both dessert AND breakfast.Pie all the way! Fresh fruit pies are my favorite. Banana cake for my breakfast.I just ran four miles today and am totally exhausted. Hoping to be healthier.

Kate Williamson says
Yeah You!
Georgiana says
PIE PIE PIE – cake is 100% more pants than pie. Any kind of fruit pie needs to be just kept AWAY from me – it will be devoured instantly, no doubt.
Lisou says
I love tiramisu to speculoos … Hummmm’
Lisa says
Hi Karen! I definitely wear different makeup on the weekends than during the week. i tend to wear more fun makeup on the weekends that I cannot really wear to work. Sometimes I don’t even wear makeup on the weekends! It all depends on how I’m feeling. Hope you’re having a fabulous weekend!!! 🙂

Surendene J. says

Julia T. says
Once my sister made an art project for her advanced art class where she took a cigar box and painted it all sorts of candy colors. They were supposed to base the piece on a quote, and she chose “Life is short, eat dessert first.” I always remember this project and feel better about myself when I eat my leftover chocolate birthday cake for breakfast 🙂
bonnie says
I’ve been looking at food blogs lately & I’ve come across this blog “http://smittenkitchen.com”. I’m not a fan of warm fruit, there’s just something about fruit, and how I prefer mines cold… however, looking at those pies she’s made, it’s making me wonder if i should give pies another chance!
I do love brownies though!
Karen S. says
I adore carrot cake! I could eat it all day long. Super yummy!
Anna S. says
Love your blog! My favorite dessert is cheesecake 🙂
Ansh says

Kelly says

Re-watching old 80s cartoons with the kiddo (“She-ra, She-RA!”) and well, it’s interesting. A $50 gift certificate would take my mind off of it…

Melissa says
We were out celebrating my birthday last night and the bar had the Olympics on. I was excited that I got to watch some swimming and gymnastics, my fave events. I love the Olympics and it always pulls at my heart strings.
Cake for breakfast is always a good idea.
Danielle says
The weekend is makeup playtime – there are no rules!
Jennifer says
Hi Karen!
Fave dessert: Homemade Pie. (Although Claim Jumper Apple is darn good!)
Makeup: Same on weekends
Naturally Athletic: HA! Not even close. .
Know an Olympic athelete: Know an almost one. My father was slated to go to the Olympics in late 1940’s competing in the standing broad jump (now extinct) but came down with Rhuematic Fever and couldn’t go.
Fave Events: Gynnastics-summer. Ice Skating-winter.
Pie or Cake: PIE!!! Apple, Lemon, Peach, Chocolate.
-Jennifer
Alyssa says
Karen,
Love your site! What are some good makeup looks for the working week (i.e. for a commuter!)
-Alyssa
Anubha Charan says
Favourite desert? Aaaaaahhhhh… that would have to be chocolate mint ice cream eaten straight from the tub in front of the television while watching Gossip Girl 🙂
Brooke says
Anything with chocolate!!! Yes, please!!!
Kristi says
Happy Weekend Karen & Tabs! I prefer cake over pie…most of the time! Unless it”s ice cream pie!
My weekend makeup is generally pretty similar to my work week makeup. Enough to even things out & brighten my face! I’m most comfortable in neutrals with a bit of a kick so that’s what I usually do week in & week out.
Darlene says
I love cheesecake with fruit on top. Yummy!
maggie mae says
Cake for breakfast? Absolutely!!! 😀 Though coffee and dessert doesn’t do a thing for me. Love the smell of coffee but it tastes really bad to me.
Stella says
Ha cake for breakfast… You’re brave… and fabulous! I just want to rave about Dermalogica’s AGE Smart Skin Resurfacing Cleanser. It’s SO GOOOOOD. I’m realizing that exfoliating is KEY to great skin. All my other skin care products are working 200% because they can finally get through to the layers! BTW, I love your blog… I scared my hubby while wearing a yogurt and oat mask recipe I found on your blog. 🙂
Lynn says
Favorite desert: Pie! I love all kinds of pie–except pecan.
chunyi says

Julia says
My favorite dessert of all time would be strawberry shortcakes! Yum!
Melissa says
I love ur graphic! That’s exactly how I see the entrance of Sephora. With angels playing horns and everything. I live in Alaska- no sephora stores 🙁 but when I go down to the states, they have to drag me out kicking and screaming. Thanks goodness for Sephora.com!
Cassidey says
My favorite desert is pecan pie!
Kathleen says
Fave dessert=german chocolate cake! Not a good time to be thinking about dessert though lol I’m trying to stay on my olympics inspiration and keep up with my exercise and eating healthy haha 🙂
Stephanie says
I’m currently planning my next haul at Sephora while the Olympics and all I keep noticing is the makeup the gymnasts have and the nail art the swimmers have!
Melodyy says
I love tiramisu. It’s absolutely divine. No, I am unathletic. I know a girl who was in the Olympic Trials for swimming. I love gymnastics and swimming and diving. I would say some of the more graceful sports.
MiMi says
Ice cream for sure! All kinds!!!!
Yukari says
My friend’s little brother is competing in the Olympics for the first time for speed walking! Pretty exciting 😀
virginie says
I love swimming, if only I cold get my own pool…..
Tay says
I love any dessert/thing that includes chocolate, that means cake, brownies, ice cream, cheesecake, cocoa krispies,…if it’s got chocolate I’m on it! And the makeup question has to be answered…I wear makeup depending on how I feel no matter the day or occassion…which means I can be all dolled up to go to the mailbox, LOL!
Minnie says
Cheesecake or tiramisu… so difficult to choose! But I’m definitely a cake over pie gal!
Caches says
CPK’s tiramisu takes the cake! =)
Wynell says
cookies n cream ice cream is my favorite dessert
Lulle says
My favorite dessert? That’s a tough one… I like Crème Brûlée a lot, but anything containing chocolate will make me happy.
On another subject, a couple days ago, my kitty was in the yard on his leash (I’m afraid he might run away), and I thought another cat came to say hello… until I realized it was an enormous racoon!! They were looking and sniffing at each other, not saying a word!
Liz says
I actually have known Olympic athletes: I’ve gone to school with a couple of USA figure skaters and various other athletes.
Ann says
Is working in my garden considered “athletic”? Haha, then… no.
Marjie says
I can’t get enough of the Olympic swimming events but I also love watching beach volleyball- go Misty and Kerri!

Melissa says
I love cake!
eight says
I adore cheesecake. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Melissa W. says
My mom makes this dessert that she calls “Robert Redford” but the internet says is actually called “Sex in a Pan.” It is nut crust, chocolate pudding, a cheesecake-like layer, and cool whip. It is my absolute favorite thing to eat for breakfast. I love it.
Kayla says
cannolis are probably my favorite dessert!
Michele says
My favorite dessert is Key Lime Pie! Pure joy if you ask me!
Amanda Sakovitz says
My favorite dessert is red velvet cake and I only discovered it about a year ago!
Stephanie says
Hi Karen, not sure if you’ll see this, since it so far down in the comments, but try decaff coffee. I can’t have any caffeine, but love the flavor of coffee, so that is my work-around. 🙂 BTW, I love carrot cake. It has veggies in it = healthy, right?
Tracy W says
I love peanut butter cookies.
Kelly says
I had an amazing dessert last night. It was a warm blueberry bread pudding topped with pecans locally made goat cheese and caramel gelato. Incredible! Best dessert I’ve had in a while!
Emily says
My favorite summer fruit is the nectarine! So delicious!
Jennifer says
My favorite desert is key lime pie. Love, love, LOVE key lime pie. As for the Olympics, I am quite fond of the winter Olympics but none of the summer Olympic events particularly interest me. I suppose if I had to pick one it would be gymnastics though!
Liz says
Pie or Cake. Can I just say both?
Elin says
Dessert is not dessert unless it has some chocolate on it.
mn says
If that cake is saying that it’s the breakfast of champions you have to believe it, afterall, it’s the olympics.
Jane says
I will absolutely eat cake for breakfast. I will also eat pie. And always with a cup of coffee. I am like you. I can not drink coffee late in the day or I am up all night. Even decaf has some caffeine in it.
jerlisha says
Oooh chocolate cake sounds so good right now lol i never liked chocolate until i at this chocolate cake with icing glaze at publix!!! Amazing its the only chocolate cake i eat
Theresa says
I definitely wear different makeup on the weekends. I work so I have to wear usually neutral eyes or something not as bright. Weekends is when I have fun with my makeup :).
Clara says
I’m so craving a piece of chocolate cake right now!
Julia says
My favorite Olympic sports are gymnastics, diving (the sports I play) syncronized diving and swimming and ice skating.

I really want some pie right now (especially since I had some rather disappointing takeout for dinner after driving 8 hours).
Mireya says
I could never pick a favorite dessert… but anything involving chocolate will do.
denise says
I’m on my way home from San Fran, most amazing trip.
KaylaK says
I like myself a good ol’ hot fudge sundae as my favorite dessert!
Elisa says
Thanks for all your giveaways!
Rudin says
Hi Karen. It sound like your weekend is going well.
I’m much more likely to wear no makeup on the weekends — during the day — than during the week. And if I wear something, it’s usually something easy to remove, but with more potential for touch-up.
I’m not naturally athletic at all — I’m naturally really thin with no muscle. But I enjoy some sports, so I do them. Not everyone can be a champion 🙂
Sophie C. says
Argh, getting back to the states tomorrow after a fantastic summer in Europe!
Larie says
I definitely prefer pie! We’re having it at our wedding instead of cake 🙂
Phyrra says
I love caramel and chocolate, way too much! I’m currently riding my bike to exercise, but dreaming of Ben & Jerry’s Phish Food 😛
Jacquelyn says
My favorite dessert is Red Velvet cake! I have a ultimate weakness to Red Velvet cake! Even the cupcakes are much worse!! LOL! Last week, I was craving ice cream like a mad woman and had to pull myself away from it.
janey says
Cake for breakfast is a breakfast of champions — but I like mine with a big glass of ice cold milk.
And in a twist of irony, I only drink coffee, usually espresso believe it or not, after dinner. I guess I’m an all-in kind of girl in this area.
In Cake vs. Pie, I’m a Pie girl. Specifically pecan.
Ami says
I can drink coffee any time, but I can’t have tea after 3 pm or I’m up all night
Tammy Humphrey says
Happy National Lipstick Day. I’m going all out and wearing red!!!!!

Tracy says
I have a serious sweet tooth!
Lauren says
I don’t often have cake for breakfast, but I am a big supporter of pie for breakfast. If there is pie around it’s pretty much a guarantee it’ll make it on my breakfast plate. The main ingredient is fruit so it’s practically healthy.
Marisa Payne says
Ummmm cake!
Hillary says
Cake! Love cake!
Sarah says
I wear minimal makeup to work usually, so I like to do something a little more ambitious on the weekends – especially with my eye makeup!

Cassi Teague says
Ahh. I actually didnt wear any makeup today. I didnt do much, and didnt go anywhere. But its nice to give my skin a break. Heck lets be honest, I gave my whole body a break today. When the pizza man delivered pizza, and I answered the door in my pjs with no makeup, I told him Not to Judge! And he was as sweet as could be, and told me not to worry, he would be doing the same thing tomorrow 🙂
elle says
I love the Olympics!
Soo says
I actually really like cake for breakfast with a glass of milk. not sure what my favorite dessert is, but I remember having the most delicious pecan pie (with matching ice cream) at a place called Hot Chocolate in Chicago. it so, so amazingly tasty.
Jill says
LOL I had leftover cake for breakfast today too! …right before I went to go teach my kickboxing class…must’ve been good fuel, taught a killer class this am! 🙂 Cake…the breakfast of champions! 😉

tara says
I’m 35 weeks pregnant & ready to pop!

I can’t do coffee after dinner either! Especially the “special coffees.” I just end up super alert and awake. If I do fall asleep, I sleep terribly!
Lauren B says
You might enjoy this cake recipe, Karen – it’s a healthy chocolate cake that’s low carb and free of the “white stuff”! It’s quite popular at my blog. 🙂

leetal says
your blog is fab! now i’m hungry…

Cake or pie? That’s impossible to choose. Sephora gift card or no Sephora gift card? Now there’s a question I can answer. 🙂
Sara says
I’m really starting to fall back in love with loose pigments from Medusa’s Makeup. I forgot how much I love them. But the color pay off is amazing. Plus you can add a drop of water to a pinch of pigment and voila! Liquid liner!
Laci says
Cake or pie? That’s tough. Someone needs to open a Pakery like on “Drop Dead Diva”. 😀
diana says
There is nothing better for dessert than wine and a good bread or coffee and a sweet pastry! Thank you for doing this giveaway!

Molly says
I was literally eye-ing a bag of chocolate chips when I read this….walking away now. I’ll have it for breakfast.
Sue C. says
I used to think my favorite dessert involved chocolate then one evening at Macaroni Grill I had the Panna Cotta with Fresh Berries and it was so delicious it became my favorite dessert. Unfortunately they’ve never had that dessert on the menu again so it’s kind of like an illusive dream dessert, just a memory. I’ve tried making Panna Cotta but it never turns out as creamy or as delicate as that one time at Macaroni Grill.
Beth says

I didn’t know an Olympic athlete, but my college track/xc coach almost qualified in the 3000m steeple chase in track & field a few years back. I’m pretty sure she was nationally ranked or up there for a while.
(And randomly, she was also *the* Delilah from “Hey There Delilah.” True story.)
