You know there has to be a Foodie post!!!

The perfect accompaniment to my Birthday Weekend...
A Menu Beyond Compare...
and I didn't lift a finger.
Breakfast...Saturday Morning, Cheffed up by Yolanda, The Breakfast Queen. Cinnamon French Toast, sweet sweet blueberries, and Chicken apple sausage

Later in the day, Lucy started buzzing in the kitchen, chopping, slicing, dicing...and more!




Eh voila, the first course, a spectacular visual and taste treat. Cara and Blood oranges with olive oil, sprinkled with deep fried kalamata olives and rosemary. Supreme.
Second Course: A Roasted Carrot Soup with a dollop of Greek yogurt, and a wonderful garnish of chopped pistachios, cumin, caraway seeds, and several other travel worthy spices. Truly Yummy



Third course: Pappardelle pasta, with a vibrant mix in of Zucchini, Tomatoes, Basil, Mint, Sugar Peas, Red Onion, and Corn, topped with a wave of Parmesan. Served on well traveled sunshine yellow melamine plates from Minnesota :)
The crew...Cheers!  Not pictured...probably because the glass was continually in motion, were the beverages...cocktails: a concoction of Bourbon, Lemon, Mint, & simple syrup... all muddled up with crushed ice, followed by a beautiful French Rose. Oh so tasty!  As Julia would have said "Bon Appetit"
