Talk about a tasty way to start your day! Jessica was up front and center with the folks at Ed's Bakery in Conway. From apple fritters, cookies and cupcakes, they made it all! Manager Julie Goodnight showed Jessica and the viewers all they needed to know about how to get those sprinkles on top just right. It made you hungry just watching it, that's for sure! Jessica said her favorites were the apple fritters, saying "They changed my life!" The folks at Ed's Bakery even decorated a specialty Channel 7 cake and a cake for Fat Tuesday for Mardi Gras. Yum! We watched as they spray-painted the top with icing like pros.

If you think it's cold in Arkansas... you haven't felt these cold-blooded critters! Jessica Dean went live to the Little Rock Zoo to get a behind the scenes glimpse at what the reptile keeper does to take care of the reptiles in the morning.
It all starts with breakfast! The snakes were fed their mice and the lizards had plenty of cockroaches to munch on. They even started fighting over who got to eat first. It may seem gross, but they appeared to like it as they chomped away live on the air. They weren't camera shy, that's for sure. And the green cameleon took a strong liking to Jessica's hair! It's just the start of a long fun month as we Rise & Shine on Daybreak!
