Sunday brunch :).
My best frittata yet!
This baby was full of local eggs, onions, zucchini, mushrooms, Twin Oaks soysauge, nutmeg, and smoked paprika.
The food was delicious but the company was superb. Our friends Anna, Chase, and baby Arlie joined us for this spread. I love the brunch party, I think we are going to start having them more often, image the delicious potential of a brunch potluck!
The theme of the weekend seems to be sharing food with friends, this was our third meal with friends of the weekend! Love it!
Gym Update: I had the best time in a Pilates Reformer class yesterday! I LOVE THE REFORMER but haven’t been on one since 2005 because of the high cost of lessons. I still can’t believe that these classes are included in regular membership at ACAC, it’s pretty ridiculous. Bring on 3x a week reformer classes!
If money is not an object I highly recommend getting yourself to a reformer lesson, it will do amazing things for your body.
Kefir Soda Update: WOW it’s delicious! My first batch is fizzy and sooo good. It is sweet, mildly grapey, and just the faintest hint fermented (think yeast, like beer, but very slight).
Kefir Water Soda has excellent benefits (besides being a super tasty, natural refreshment!)
- Probiotics
- Minerals including Potassium and chloride
- High in vitamins B1, B6, B12
I shared some with Anna this morning and she was instantly converted into a Kefir Soda lover too! She also brought me some vanilla from her recent trip to Mexico so my next batch is going to be a cream soda! Mmmmmm
Anyone know what this contraption is used for?
If you guessed that it’s my new yogurt maker you’re invited to my next brunch party!
While in my friend Jessica‘s kitchen last night I spotted this baby sitting high atop the cabinets. Jessica is dairy-free these days after realizing she’s intolerant so she gave the yogurt maker to me. And made my night!
To be honest, my kitchen sink method has been producing really inconsistent results, I think because my kitchen is so cold. I even looked at buying a yogurt maker but couldn’t bring myself to bring another appliance into our tiny kitchen. But when it was handed to me by a dear friend it seemed meant to be :).
Time to go to the gym and burn off some of the coffee energy I have pulsing through me!
Mmmm…brunch!
It looks delish.
Have fun with the new yogurt maker.
I already LOVE the yogurt maker!
Yeah, the yogurt maker is getting some love again! 🙂 So glad you spotted it sitting lonely on the shelf and volunteered to adopt it.
I am working on my second batch right now! Thanks again!!!
LUCKY! We love kefir; I would love to make my own!
I just tried kefir for the first time and loved it!
I’ve taken one pilates reformer class and it was amazing! That is awesome that your gym offers the classes at no additional charge…so envious!!!
Everyday I say to myself, “I can’t believe reformer classes are included!”. I have to restrain myself from going everyday!
I have the same yogurt maker and love it! Have fun with it!
My reliable, consistent and easy incubator for yogurt is to put the filled jars in a deep warm water bath in a solid picnic “cooler” and leave overnight.
