New Year's Brunch

Happy 2008! I hope everyone had a happy and safe holiday.

This morning our neighbors R and N had a few friends over for New Year's brunch. R put out quite the spread and all of us were feeling pleasantly stuffed:


She had every kind of bagel imaginable:


... thinly sliced lox:


... onion, cucumber and tomato:


... cream cheese and Monterey Jack cheese:


... a variety of spreads:


... including tuna salad:


... egg salad:


... and white fish salad:


N's stepsister, W, made sweet kugel:


... and R made Paula Deen's French toast casserole:


I was searching for a good recipe and came across Ina's corn muffins stuffed with raspberry preserves:


Our other neighbor friends, K and D, gave up a cappuccino cake for Christmas, so we brought that along for everyone to share:


My plate with a bagel with cream cheese and tomato, French toast casserole, sweet kugel, tuna and egg salads:


K made her decadent coffee cake for dessert:


... and we also noshed on cashews, dried fruit and mini peanut butter cups:


Thanks, R and N, for inviting us to such a wonderful brunch. We can't wait for next year!

  2. Look at all those bagels! Rofl! I've only seen a few packets in our stores, it's not very common here to have bagels. In fact, I don't think I have ever had one! Maybe I should try one just for kicks, see how it feels to be American! ;)

    Happy New Year!

  4. reminds me of sunday morning deli food when I was young. that's what you get on the weekends with new york jewish parents. old habits die hard. ;)

    I keep staring at the egg salad. I loooove that stuff, though I am not in the majority there. it's something I actually crave from time to time. drool.
