We’re back!
Well, for a hot minute we should say.
We are headed to NYC on Wednesday to visit our uncles and then we're off to the Hamptons for a fun blogger retreat! WHEW Bessie. We feel like we are marinating on the east coast this summer. To be honest, we love being on eastern time zone. Actually a favorite is when we travel to Europe because being on London time is a type A personality’s dream. We can get all our work done before the US of A wakes up!
Clearly this is the most important thing you have ever read. Wait. Are you still there? Kidding. Anyway, we did have a blast in Hilton Head. Everyone played well, we celebrated birthdays, biked, marinated on the beach, cooked up a few feasts and spent quality time with the family. We dare to say that we think we shall return to Hilton Head sooner rather than later.
So, how was your weekend? Can you believe it’s June?!! GAH. As we mentioned before, we are trying to be present and enjoy this summer. But we're struggling a bit because our calendar is full, full. Like we won’t have a moment at home until July. As we always try to look at things with a glass-half-full perspective, the good news is by the time Mr. B and we are back from all of our travel our garden should be in the prime state! Hello shit load of kale, beets, beans, and tomatoes!!
OH! But a favorite part? We think we will have all the ingredients to make this savory Caprese Frittata Pizza again. Can you say winning? We actually just got on board the Frittata train this year. We guess better late than never? We dunno. Either way, this Caprese Frittata Pizza is the real deal Holyfield. Eggs mixed with ricotta and then topped with heirloom tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, spinach, and baked into a golden savory pie. This frittata is reliable for those breakfasts for dinner nights! Or for brunch, naturally.
Alright, we're off to pack for another east coast excursion. If you’ve been to the Hamptons let us know. Would love any recs!!
