Brunch with the Girls

Sometimes it takes 30 years to meet some of them again. But the wait is worth it.



We met a a friends house about 90km away in the middle of the rural countryside. This area is well known of the growing of Christmas Trees and lots of tracktors with freshly harvested trees in the back slowed down all traffic. It had snowed the other day, it wad a bit freezing temperature wise and that helped with a bit of seasonal charme.



Each of us 4 prepared some food to add to the table. As always, too much. But we devided some of it to take home later to enjoy on Sunday.

One of us is a decoaration queen and she made a huge platter of cheeses, cheese balls with bacon and cranberries, little cheesy Christmas trees, tasty onion jam and Caprese sticks. It looked great and tasted awesome.

I baked sausage rolls with caramelized onions, plum chutney, chestnut mustard and pumpkin seeds on sausage meat wrapped in puff pastry. The recipe is on the blog allready, because I needed a time frame for the preparation.

2 Thermomix spreads came from an other friend. My favourite I will post an other day, when I've got the ingredients right.

It was heartwarming to spend time with these women gain. We promised not to wait so many years again to meet again.
