Day 19: Pumpkin is the most important meal of the day


The week before a photo shoot or fitting it's important to eat healthy. You want to cut out snacking, run more, and especially restrict your carbohydrates. So naturally, when I had a fitting this week, my breakfast of choice was Honey's Pumpkin Pancakes.

Honey's Sit and Eat is probably my favorite brunch spot in the city (Sorry, Sabrina's. It's not you, it's me). I've had amazing veggie biscuits and gravy, cornbread, and omelets there, but nothing could compare to their pumpkin pancakes. They have a strong ginger influence (the spice not the people), giving it a kind of pumpkin/gingerbread flavor that is unique and phenomenal. The slices of apple baked in are an excellent touch and the cinnamon butter is like the bow on top of the Christmas present, or on top of the cat when you've opened all your Christmas presents and have taken to decorating the pets. This was MUCH better than my pumpkin smoothie that I messed up AND the pop-corn I burned when trying to make up for my awful smoothie and yet still ate the entire, charred snack pack.

Honey's Sit and Eat is located at 4th and Brown in Philadelphia, Pa.
