For once, enjoying breakfast at ND
In a change from years past, the Breakfast of Princes become a real breakfast. Gone were the Krispy Kreme doughnuts. Gone were the small bottles of Sunny Delight. Gone was the breakfast of years past as Hall President Trzaska and Vice Presidents Kimlinger and Lupo decided that the residents needed a breakfast that was truly fit for not a gentleman but also a prince. Starting at 8:30am in the Lounge (1st floor lounge), residents were treated to pancakes made by Hall Government. Of course, syrup (20% real maple), bacon, orange juice and coffee, and other assorted breakfast items were served as well. Suffice it to say, the Gentlemen did not miss out on the most important meal of the day.
On the breakfast shake up, Vice President Kimlinger said, "When people awoke this morning, an aroma was wafting up through the halls and into lofts, awakening their inhabitants with excitement, for the smell was so succulent and savory that they were sure a prince was in town. Instead, when they stumbled downstairs, they were greeted with the beaming faces of their humble public servants, cooking them a breakfast even better than a Denny's Grand Slam. It was then that they all simultaneously thought to themselves: we're all princes on Founder's Week, and in unison broke into the most beautiful and happy of songs, marching throughout campus together to spread their pure and utter joy."
Still, Vice President Lupo added, "The Breakfast of Princes was a resounding success. With their stomachs full, the princes of St. Edward's Hall can turn their attention to princely things, like ruling their kingdoms and protecting their people from dragons."
Why is it called the Breakfast of Princes? It is to honor of the “Princes of Notre Dame,” what Fr. Sorin called the residents of St. Edward’s Hall. What a fitting name indeed!
Here are some behind the scenes look at the breakfast...
