CHAPTER 2 : L&C's Brunch

Sent: 12/9/2001 5:24 PM

Leon and Ceddy, that is. They miraculously performed an entire spur-of-the-moment brunch for friends. I think there were about 9 or 10 people, squeezed into Ceddy's cozy apartment. Mimosas in one hand, banana bread in the other. It was so warm on this cloudy, frosty day.

The funny thing was listening to Leon and Ceddy talk afterwards about how worried they were at times during cooking, and, alas, the worry was for nothing. Everything tasted divine, warm, perfect. (Even after Leon's translation of the French cookbook they were using.)

Another nice day. Another blessing. Thank you.

Ooops. I almost forgot. The menu:

Coffee

Mimosas

Banana Bread - just from the oven, with pecans, cranberries, and raisins.

Salad of fresh vegetables with a vinagrette

Crepes - with cheese, with chocolate, with egg...

Salad of blueberries, blue cheese, and blues

Spinach Quiche

Blueberries

Champaigne

C'est BONNE!
