Mango & Tomato: Brunch Time!
I wanted the brunch to be casual, fun and include good but not fussy food. Here's a photograph of the table prior to the food: I used different colored plates, martini glasses, bowls and tall drinking glasses. For the center piece, I bought bright pink gerber daisies and mums in white and purple.
4) Drinks courtesy of Jenn: orange/mango/peach juice mixed with one of those fuzzy Italian sodas and topped with a few raspberries and blueberries: delicious!
Here is the table with all the food and drinks! I also gave Jenn and Radha a lesson on how to make poached eggs (the eggs went on top of the roasted brunch potatoes).
After the nap we devoured the fruit salad topped with home-made whipping cream and also baked biscotti (I will be posting those on Robyn's blog on Thursday. For those of you who just can't wait, they were made with crystallized ginger, pistachios and orange zest).
Everything looks so pretty. And the brunch potatoes look scrumptious!
You're such a sweet friend, and I love how you set the table.
i love giving little parties for friends and making the table look pretty!
What a simply lovely feast. You've shared some really great ideas with us. Thanks!
Great table setting Olga and love the simple yet tasty dishes! Those are always the best... which is probably why you all had a two (!!) hour nap! Did you all crash down on the couch?
I love brunch! It is my favorite meal!
