Brunch...

My friend Meghan over here at Unintended Housewife inspired me to have a brunch!


Since moving into our new home, I really enjoy having people over.

This time the invitees were my mom and dad.
I served brunch!

I did not worry if the house was clean enough...
for once!
I just called and told them to come over for 11am
I served scones with cream and jam
A breakfast casserole
A lime fruit salad
Coffee ~ Tea ~ Juice


Easy peasy!!
Really... it was
I had the scones in the freezer and warmed them up in the oven
Whipped some fresh cream
Made a egg, sausage and hash brown casserole and left it overnight in the fridge
Cut up some fruit and added some fresh lime juice, honey and poppy seed
That is it ... oh and I woke up at 10am, turned on the oven and set the table!



My dad voted that we do this weekly... no one seconded him!
But I may just call and tell them to show up again soon!

  1. Aren't you the most wonderful daughter? What a sweet thing to do and I'm sure your parents appreciated this so much. I know I would! How wonderful your folks live close enough to you that they could just pop in!
    Now your table looks wonderful and the food sounds so good.
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia ;)
