Nonetheless, I just love taking photos of my cute meals, and the cutest of course are the ones involving eggs. Today I had two hard-boiled (but still warm) eggs from a farm outside Milton, Ontario, atop a bed of organic spinach sauteed in cinnamon-butter. For the sauce, a hobo bearnaise (sans terragon) made with mayonaise, creamy dill mustard, a splash of white balsamic vinegar, and a couple drops of Worcestershire. Steeping in my oversized mug is Whittard of Chelsea’s loose-leaf peach-flavoured black tea.
But honestly, I swear I do more than brunch. It’s only that I work from home, so I have access to a fully-stocked fridge, a proper stove, and unsupervised breaks. Today I am working on a copywriting project – an advertising campaign for a Canadian plastic parts distributor. You know you love advertising when you get excited about creating a brand for a plastic parts distributor! I think I have some good ideas for this project, and maybe some future ones if they like my suggestions.
Before I started work this morning (my business hours are 10am-6pm), I went for a brisk walk/stumbling jog around High Park and took a photo of my tree. On my way across the street to the Park, I brought a box of cupcakes to the construction workers who have been repairing the waterline along Bloor West since I moved in this September. They were leftovers from my birthday party on Saturday that my Mom made. She freelances in cupcakes with her own business, PattiCakes. Here’s what she made me:
Black Forest, Butter Pecan with Turtle topping, and Coconut flavours. I put little bombs on the Black Forest cupcakes (cherry bombs lol) and presented them sparkling away on a smaller cupcake tree as my birthday cake. Delightful!
Now, back to work for me :o)
Toods,
