This past weekend, the fact that fall is coming finally hit me. The cool breezes, extra leaves on the ground, and even tiniest hint of color are all too much to ignore. Don’t worry, I’m not going to tell you to embrace the changing seasons. If anything, I’m all for doing the opposite. It’s my first year not heading back to school at the end of August, which conveniently makes it that much easier to blissfully disregard what the calendar is implying. So, go on and start planning your next outdoor party, and cross a few more items off your summer bucket list, while you’re at it.
I love that brunch is the perfect low-stress way to entertain, and it comes with the best food and drinks. A dutch baby pancake with orange sugar is easy and impressive- all you need in a brunch dish. Grapefruit cocktails extend the citrus theme, and are a touch more original than the predictable mimosa. At least you can pretend that you’re dining in the middle of an orange grove.
