a day of brie...

My sister, Hannah, had the glorious idea to do a girls' day, where we bake a bunch of our favorite brie recipes and drink some good wine.  Today was that day, and it was amazing!  Last year, Hannah got a bottle of wine when they were in Napa Valley area, and she's been saving it especially for us to share since having our little ones.  She is also the ever creative foodie of our family, so it's always a treat to get together and cook with her.

We did a Maple Pecan Baked Brie, Brie and Apple Flatbread with Honey, a Sun-dried Tomato Flatbread with artichoke hearts, caramelized onions, with fresh basil and brie, and a Baked Brie and raspberries, toasted almonds, in a honey balsamic vinaigrette sauce.  They were all delicious.

Landon's brother lives in the same town as my sister, and he generously offered to watch Finn for a few hours while Hannah and I enjoyed our time.  Emery, Hannah's little one, slept almost the entire time, so she was golden...plus it was a girls' day!

Here are a few photos of our afternoon.

So jealous! Brie and wine are two of the things that I am missing most during pregnancy since both are on the "no-no" list. Glad you had a great time and that you two have such a special bond to share!!

A brie themed get-together. Nothing short of genius! I've always wanted a sister. You make it look as amazing as I imagine it would be. :) How wonderful to be going through life's phases at simliar times.
