This past weekend, we hosted a brunch and invited a few friends over who had not yet gotten a chance to meet Baby T yet.  Since time has been at a premium lately with taking care of T, I bought a number of pre-made items from Whole Foods.  Here was the menu:

Food:
-Whole Foods’ quiches- Quiche Lorraine and Asparagus & Gruyere Quiche (these are really good if you have not tried them!)
-Baked French Toast (thanks to twitter user LimoncelloSTYLE for the great recipe!)
–Bananas Foster Bread (from Cooking Light)
-Whole Foods 2 bite blueberry scones
-Greek yogurt, berries, and granola
-Aunt N’s salad (I’ll post this recipe soon!)
-Coffee cake from friend SM
-Pastries from Joseph’s Bakery thanks to friend LB
-Blueberry bread from friend LG

Beverages:
-Coffee
-Mimosas with Whole Foods’ fresh squeezed orange juice
-Bloody Mary’s (I like Mark Bittman’s recipe in his cookbook How To Cook Everything)
-Ice Water

Overall, I thought the event was a great success.  Brunch is a pretty easy  and casual event to host as I just put all the drinks and food out and everyone could mingle and grab food whenever they felt like it.  It is also at a time where most people do not have prior plans and are able to attend.  It was definitely a great way to catch up with a number of friends all at once and enjoy a great meal together on a Sunday morning!
