Ahh there’s something so sweet and refreshing about a slow Sunday. We slept in on accident, made a big brunch and now we’re off doing our own things for a few hours before we tune into a new church we’re checking out late this afternoon.

The weather has been absolutely beautiful the last couple days! Upon seeing this week’s weather forecast, we made plans for a picnic in Central Park for Friday afternoon (yesterday). It was glorious and such a mood booster for a week that’s been kind of blah. We rounded up some of our favorite snacks and our new picnic blanket and headed to the park.

Happy Friday! How’s everyone doing? Has your state begun opening back up for business? New York state’s plan to reopen has been a bit confusing. We are feeling the cabin fever, which has led to the creation of some interesting lunches and why I wanted to do a fun, laid back food post for today! Consider this Part II to “fancy grilled cheese” (see Grilled Gouda and Green Apple)!

Cauliflower - meh! Cauliflower with cheese - I’m listening!! Can anyone else relate?? Darrell has been the driving force in trying cauliflower-based foods. Knowing he likes it has me looking out for cauliflower-related recipes. The loaded cauliflower turned out sooo yummy last month so when I came across a recipe for cauliflower mac and cheese I thought we’d give it a try! The first time we tried this recipe was actually the night I photographed the fried pork chops for the blog. It was our side dish that night and then Darrell cooked it for lunch one day earlier this week!

Don’t tater tots just take you back to childhood? They also make me think of Napoleon Dynamite!! I was excited to try this recipe and it did not disappoint! I can’t recall ever trying (cooking or eating) a tater tot casserole before this but I love the idea of it, haha! My friend Cathy recently introduced me to the blog Half Baked Harvest on Instagram and when I saw this recipe posted a few days later, I knew Darrell would be all about it!

After our wedding, Darrell and I spent the weekend at Boone Tavern for a mini honeymoon. With the pandemic, we couldn’t really go out to restaurants but we enjoyed ordering room service from Boone Tavern’s delicious menu. I was also surprised at the number of gluten free items or alternatives they provided! One night we ordered the most amazing brussels sprouts. When trying to find a recipe to recreate the dish at home, we came across these Maple Dijon Brussels Sprouts. While they’re not an exact match, they’re incredibly tasty and simple!
