A Little Sunday Brunch...

Thank you all so much for your good wishes for Princess and her dance concert. It was a really hectic but wonderful weekend, and she did a fantastic job with everything she was in! We were just so proud! On Sunday morning we let Princess sleep in because she had been dancing in the concert Friday night, then on Saturday during the day and again on Saturday night, so as you can imagine she was one worn out little dancer! I asked her what she would like to have for brunch on Sunday since I knew she would miss breakfast, and be too hungry to wait until lunch time, and my girl requested a couple of family favourites that I've posted the recipes for on my blog before. We invited my mum over for brunch too to celebrate Princess' success with us, even though my mum was at 2 out of 3 concerts, she enjoyed reliving the events with us over a leisurely brunch...

Here's the cheese & bacon quiche baking on the top rack, and a coconut custard pie baking on the bottom rack...


My family love this coconut custard pie topped with ice-cream!


The quiche is also a family favourite, and I love it because it not only tastes delicious, but it's quick and simple to make (just what this tired old mum needed after a long weekend! lol)


Then I set our little kitchen table in the breakfast nook area, since there was only the 4 of us I thought it would be cosier than setting the big table....


Then we all sat down to enjoy a summer brunch of quiche, fresh garden salad and garlic potato wedges with sour cream and sweet chilli sauce. Of course we had to have a toast to Princess too! Does it make it any less special if it was soft drink (soda or pop I think you call it) in our glasses and not champagne? I don't think so! lol


Even though all the dancing has finished for the year now, things are still crazy as this is the last week of school for the year for Princess. This is exam week and as you can imagine, very stressful! It will be good to be on summer vacation for 2 months after this week (for all Aussie kids). We can't wait!

Next post I want to show you some terrific thrift store finds I got for Christmas decorating. Such fun! Have a wonderful week all!
