friends are coming for a late lunch of soup, salad,and grilled bread with ricotta and lemon zest on this winter afternoon...love setting the table in front of the fire with creamware china and hyacinth bulbs... a sign that spring is coming...
I discovered a simple smoothie recipe on Ina Garten's show last week and have been making them every morning...lots of vitamin c in a pretty goblet ...a handful of strawberries, juice of an orange and half a grapefruit and half a banana...my instant breakfast.
