Another Yummy Brunch

On Saturday morning it was time for another great brunch at one of my favorite restaurants in Madison, Graze!

Fried Chicken and Waffles with Spiced Butter

Organic Egg Scrambler with Spicy Sausage, Spinach, Garlic and Asiago Cheese, Hash Browns and Field Greens Salad

Dorm Room Cooking

Living in a dorm doesn't give you very many options for cooking your own meals, so I usually don't. But on Friday night Richard and I really wanted something tasty, so this is what we came up with. (It is Richard's creation, by the way, inspired by our trip to Italy this summer!)



Rosemary Olive Oil Focaccia with Pesto, Prosciutto, Tomato, and Mozarella

Ocean Grill

Tonight Richard and I had a lot of free time so we went to Ocean Grill, a really good seafood restaurant by the capitol.
I don't have a picture of it, but with the bread they served pumpkin spiced butter! It was delicious.

Fresh Lobster with Drawn Butter and Seasonal Vegetables

Weekend Dinner

On Friday and Saturday night my family and I went to two great restaurants, Harvest and 43 North. Unfortunately, my pictures from Harvest didn't turn out very well, but here are some decent ones from 43 North.

Parents' Weekend Breakfast

This weekend was parents' weekend which means I got to see my family! I really missed them. And it also means - really good food!
Both Saturday and Sunday morning we went to one of my favorite breakfast places Marigold Kitchen.

Saturday:
Steel cut Oatmeal Pancakes with Walnuts, Dried Cranberries, and Orange Citrus Butter
(these were possibly the best pancakes I've ever had!)

Pancakes with Orange Citrus Butter and Berries

Omelette with Artichokes, Oven Roasted Tomatoes, and Asiago Cheese


Sunday: 

Omelette with Zucchini, Oven Roasted Red Peppers, and Goat Cheese

French Toast with Almonds and Fresh Berries, drizzled with Whipped Cream
