Rest days are supposed to include an exercise of self-actualization and to think about something significant. Rest day #1 for me was comprised of art appreciation, a delicious brunch with the sweater-set crowd, and a few hours of retail therapy. Followed by a good read of James Patterson's most recent book. A totally satisfying day on all accounts, particularly because of the new Coach sunglasses coming my way in a few short days.
Brunch was honestly fabulous - who knew healthy food could taste so fantastic? If anyone is looking for some fabulous foods to serve at brunch, take note of the below....
- Seared Ahi with sesame soy sauce & horseradish cream sauce
- Microgreens with sliced strawberries, pine nuts, sliced figs, and balsamic vinaigrette
- Cheese tray with goat cheese, gruyere, and parmesan cheese
- Roasted vegetable salad with asparagus, mushrooms, and eggplant
- Poached chicken with a citrus glaze, accompanied by porcini aioli
- Fresh sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion with chopped herbs
- Mixed greens with blackberries
Above were the dishes I ate, if you don't mind carbs...consider the below:
- Sliced fingerling potatoes with sausage, capers, in a dijon mustard sauce
- Tabouleh salad
Delicious!
We're trying some new recipes for dinner....if appropriate, I'll post them later.
