A typical German sunday breakfast

One thing that is quite typical in my family is having a relaxed breakfast together on Sunday. Unlike on school days, we usually have more time and do not have to get up early.A typical Sunday breakfast starts with fresh bread rolls from a local bakery. We usually have different kinds of bread rolls, butter, jam, cheese and sometimes sausage. We might also have boiled eggs. Everyone can choose what they like and make their own breakfast. For the adults, coffee is usually an important part of the morning, while I normally drink something else.The best part is that we eat together at the table instead of everyone eating quickly before school or work. We talk about our plans for the day and just enjoy having a calm morning. Sometimes breakfast takes quite a long time because there is no need to hurry.For me, this is a small but important part of everyday life in Germany. Having fresh bread rolls from a bakery and spending Sunday morning with the family is something I really associate with weekends at home.
