back from the dream

time to come back to the present, back from the dream that was casually walking around belgium and france, where even the pavement is gorgeous. back to school, carpools, buses, sports, orchestra auditions, baseball training, field hockey games, parent meetings, magazine drives, curriculum nights, homework, and eating on the fly. as i dip my toes back into the tepid reality of school year living, we are still eating well. surprise! it certainly isn't effortless, when everyone is exhausted from too many activities. but we are having breakfasts (on good days) like above, figs, apricots, yogurt, honey, toasted oats. also dinners with homemade plum tarts, lasagna, grilled fish, etc. fast, healthy, early fall recipes coming up next. xo, g
