Last week I read an article entitled "Celebrate Lundi Gras with Bourbon and Biscuits" on Garden and Gun's blog. Julia Reed spotlighted the annual brunch of two of her friends, Thomas Jayne and Rick Ellis. The men are based in New York, but have an apartment in the French Quarter, where they spend a good deal of time during carnival season. On Lundi Gras, the Monday before Fat Tuesday, they host a bourbon and biscuits brunch. This sounded like my kind of party! However, Lundi Gras and Mardi Gras had passed. With Valentine's Day falling on Sunday, it seemed like the perfect excuse to host a "Galentine's" brunch. Have y'all heard of this, this notion of Galentine's day? The concept is celebrating love & friendship with your best gal pals. Very last minute I invited them all over and they happily accepted!
I picked up a bouquet of tulips from Whole Foods and set the table using my Kate Spade china.
