We had a really lovely impromptu brunch this morning, featuring frittata, prosciutto-wrapped honeydew, fruit salad, various cheeses, fresh-squeezed mimosas and of course...
pie. And now, pictures!

The spread. Minus frittata, which was in the oven.
We do throw a good party, if I do say so myself. |

| mmm pie |
And in case you're wondering, we didn't get the apartment we applied for :( There were two other competitive applicants, and one of them beat us to it, time-wise. Pretty bummed, but onward go we into
our search!
SOooooo how was the PIE??? So nice to see your table filled with family treasures! You have the entertaining gene 4 sure! Good luck with the apartment hunt.

So glad your pie was a success! How was the crust? The last few crusts I've made have been mediocre at best. Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteomg try this pie crust recipe! so easy and SO GOOD. I think it's all the
ReplyDeletebutter.
Brunch looks lovely! PS - on IE8, Disqus comments don't really work. Ryan already knows about this, but it might be something you want to fix. :)
ReplyDeleteOr maybe you want to fix the fact that you're using IE8! ;) But yeah, the
ReplyDeleteguys know about it. Nothing I can do except continue feeding and paying
them!
Yeah, I am waiting for work to upgrade to IE9 already. ;) Just a matter of waiting for the IT folks b/c they won't let us do it ourselves.
ReplyDeleteAnd they don't let you use ffox or chrome or safari? The horror!
ReplyDeleteOMG Ms. Weisberg, this pie. THIS PIE. I will post photos on my blog. It's still too hot to eat. Ben and I have been burning our fingers trying to get little tastes. The crust! The fruit! The rhubarb! I keep butter in the freezer and grate it like cheddar when I need it, which allows me to do very cold crusts and not need a pastry blender doohickey, which makes my baking life much less frustrating. But yes. Wow. Love. It's still hot but the pectin is already starting to set up!
ReplyDeleteI AM SO EXCITED TO HEAR THAT! So excited, I needed to use all caps,
ReplyDeleteseriously. Awesome. Can't wait to see pics!
AHHH Look at you, you are awesome!
