Spring Brunch and New Friends

Anyone else been incredibly surprised and blessed by the friendships made through blogging? I’ve said it a million times, and I’ll say it again! I never imagined that any of this would happen when I started A Daily Something 3.5 year ago in my college dorm room!

Earlier this week, Zoe and I drove into DC for Spring brunch with our new friend, Christine, one half of the powerhouse duo behind the brand new seasonal, farm-to-table menu planning service, Huckle & Goose (they’re launching late May). What a wonderful Tuesday afternoon it was! Christine served the tastiest egg salad sandwiches (complete with crunchy radishes layered on top), homemade granola with greek yogurt (and the yogurt was sweetened with pear butter…brilliant).

The table was simply lovely. I didn’t want to move away (or stop staring at her side board full of delicious kitchen props). I could have taken 1,000 photos (but limited myself to 4 so Christine didn’t think I was obsessed, ha!). I find it intriguing to share a meal in friends’ homes … to see how they decide the menu, prepare the food, set the table, take care of their toddler, etc. I always leave inspired and encouraged. And Tuesday was no exception…I am so impressed with all that Christine has managed to do, all while being a mama to the cutest 2 year old (and with baby number 2 due mid-May)!

I am so very excited to be collaborating with Huckle & Goose later this year. What a blessing to meet like-minded creatives in the DC area! I can’t wait to share more about what’s in store for this year…and help them celebrate their launch come May!

I have a lot planned for the weekend…cleaning the house today…which is no fun. I’ll be honest, I don’t like cleaning. Then tomorrow, I’ll be visiting the farmer’s market tomorrow, hopefully working on a few blog posts, stopping by the farmhouse where we’re holding Gathering from Scratch (my August workshop-retreat with Beth Kirby…which is SOLD OUT…thank you, friends!! If you missed a retreat ticket, we still have about half of the Thursday evening dinner tickets available!), and spending time with my family. On Sunday, I’ll be heading down to Roanoke to grab brunch with Beth, who’s in VA for the weekend. (Another friendship made through blogging…and we’re just meeting in person for the first time…so fun!) Follow along the adventures through instagram! Have a blessed weekend!

    This post made my day. Such sweet words. Can't wait 'til our next brunch/playdate!

  2. Honestly, most of my best friends at this point in my life I met either directly or indirectly through blogging. It's crazy! And definitely something I never anticipated. So very pleased to have met and looking forward to August! Nice that our friendship translated in the flesh…hahaha!
