Brunch Success

Well, our first official Sunday Brunch was a success, but the quiche on the other hand not so much. I still have not figured out how to include mushrooms in a quiche without it turning into egg drop soup in a pie crust. I knew it would be risky, but I was feeling hopeful. You should have seen them as they sizzled in butter and salt when I pre-sautéed them. They were gorgeous! And the aroma: unbelievable as onions and garlic danced in a neighboring pan: the scents entwining and swirling. It was a true thing of beauty, which words cannot fully describe, but despite the ambrosial odors, they were apparently still full of water.

In the end, the flavor, despite the unfortunate consistency, kept them still a delight to savor along with the roasted potatoes, a delicious loaf of home-baked bread (which was brought over), amazing tempeh (also brought over), chocolate chip scones prepared by the roommates, and some biscuits with fresh strawberries and whipped cream for dessert! A feast for sure!
Thanks to everyone who could make it, and thanks to everyone who has expressed so much support and enthusiasm for our Sunday Brunch Adventure!
Anne & I cannot wait to sit down together over a delicious meal with everyone!
