Lovely Day
Lovely brunch!
I wasn’t hungry when I woke up, so I put together a sally that could sit for a while, til I was good n ready for it. First, I made some basil paste, which is essentially pesto without the cheese/nuts
Big handful of fresh basil with 4 TB Malibu Olive Oil – pureed in the mini prep processor
Froze most of the paste, but reserved 1 TB for a dressing, along with the zest/juice of a huge lemon + salt and pepper
Dinosaur Kale, toss and chopped
Massaged that basil lemon dressing in there – my hands got drrrrty
Added two tomatoes; sat covered in the fridge
Portioned out a bowl around noon, topped with crumbled Cranberry Brown Rice Pops
A drizzle of honey for extra sweetness
Afternoon snack – Scarlet Sally!
Red grapes, red plum, red strawberries
The plum was so ripe it slipped right outa its skin!
Recently found this behind-the-scenes iPhone video someone took of us rehearsing dinner scenes for “Yes We’re Open.” Ahhh, memories…
…we are actually just $400 away from our $10,000 goal on Kickstarter – big big BIG thanks everyone who’s donated so far!!!

It all looks so good especially the dressing
Haha, that video is too funny! I always think the best part about the movies are the behind the scenes.
