Sunday Mimosa Brunch
They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. We say why not add in a mimosa, a good cause, and call it a brunch? Lightopia, the Laguna Beach lighting store, is bringing food donated by local restaurants to the ASID Dream Home this Sunday for a special mimosa brunch. We’ve raved about the Dream Home concept all week and this is your chance to walk through the home while munching on Shirley’s Bagels, Plums, Zinc Café, and many more. The mimosa brunch will benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society as well. Come out and enjoy the most important meal of Sunday.
