In May, sister Rhino will marry a wonderful guy in California. I'm her maid of honor. I'm not sure what all of the usual maid duties entail, but mine seem to focus almost solely on my kitchentry skills. Not to say that I mind that at all...
Anyway, this weekend I catered a large portion of said sister's bridal shower. I made my famous deviled eggs to start (no recipe needed), perfect brunch pie, overnight French toast casserole,
lemon squares (my first foray in this arena), and an adhoc fruit salad. Judging from compliments and and the few flecks of phyllo left on the brunch pie pan, I'd say I succeeded in my maidly. Now, it's back to the books for some post-wedding brunch recipes and back to healthier eating for Little Rhino (french toast and buttered phyllo ain't calorically cheap!!).
That brunch pie sounds amazing - did you get the stuffed olives, marinated artichokes, etc. from the antipasto bar in the grocery store or can you just get them jarred?
ReplyDeleteUsed un-stuffed olives in a plastic container from near the antipasto bar and just marinated artichoke hearts in a jar. I thought I was being all smart, unfortunately the olives were not pitted 0 : I made the dish in stages though, so it was pretty easy ( :
