sunday small group

i hosted a lunch for my sunday small group. and it was a hit! :)
i wanted to make some comfort food but on a gourmet level! hahah.
so here's the menu.


organic field greens with avocado and toasted walnuts. a slice of grilled tomato drizzled with olive oil. don't forget the scallion. (it makes it taste so fresh!) dressed with maple balsamic sauce.


fresh baguette with a. black olive pate and b. olive oil/balsamic vinegar.


baked ziti (three cheese with ground beef, onion, mushroom)


and who can forget dessert!?
"after eight" cupcakes



mmmmmm.


i hope everyone enjoyed my meal.
