Fashion week schmashion week. (Is it me or has everything been pretty, uh, blah so far?) I’m always somewhat surprised by how popular my food posts are and how many people email/comment me asking for more… Here’s some food-porn and apartment-porn from the lovely brunch we had over Labor Day weekend at my friend Alana’s. Featuring homemade waffles with stewed apples and candied almonds, a zucchini-dill-ricotta quiche situation, some sort of breakfast drinks involving tequila and orange juice (we didn’t have champagne, and tequila and waffles makes PERFECT sense, no?) and a lot of thrift store plates and decor!
Homemade waffles are far easier than they seem, if you have a waffle iron, and the leftovers freeze well too. Good substitute for (expensive!! we are broke!!) real maple syrup is boiling down water, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon to make a caramelly-syrup that’s delicious with stewed apples as well. Leftovers = perfect on ice cream, with or without the waffles.
yeah, I should start wearing something other than this damn hoodie and cheap mondays every day, I know, I know.
