Sunday Brunch

On Sunday, John and I were invited downtown to the Barajas family home  for a special brunch.  We were absolutely overwhelmed by the beautiful spread that Aly and Eric prepared for us.  First off, I noticed that the table was set with their beautiful china that captures the fun energy of sunshine with its blue and yellow design.  Eric and Luke added to the setting with the fresh gerber daisies purchased at the farmer market that morning.  Aly totally out did herself hosting us with her special breakfast pie (yes, men, pie not quiche).  She served this with the most amazing sausage that John and I have ever had for breakfast--apple sausage patties--yum!  Luke's favorite was the cinnamon coffee cake that is a family recipe--I hope to post it up here as well because this is a treat that I definitely want to have as part of my recipe repertoire.  Finally, the brunch was capped off with parfaits that consisted of fresh fruit, granola, and goat's milk yoghurt.  It was so wonderful to get together with our special friends--we can't wait to do it again!
