We Eat Like Kings

Tonight we invited my college friend Courtney over for dinner. We have rarely invited people over to our house in the past year. Mostly because it's felt like chaos and it made me anxious. However, this dinner was easy, joyful and delicious. It was a veritable feast of entirely homemade vegetarian goodness!

It also reminded me of the fulfilling nature of simple, homegrown hospitality. Forget all this hanging out in bars business; the dinner table is the place to be!

Unfortunately there are no pics of the meal because I've been too lazy to buy batteries for my camera. Soon enough, soon enough.

Here is the menu from our totally homemade meal fit for kings:

First course -
Romaine salad with apples, grape tomatoes, almonds, Pecorino and poppy seed vinaigrette (Courtney)

Main course -
Southern-style black eyed pea, collard green and brown rice soup made with fresh veggie stock (Megan)

Dessert -
Blueberry buckle - a simple butter cake - with vanilla bean frozen custard (Ryan)
