late breakfast: monkey bread
early dinner: our favorite risotto (omit mushrooms, i omit wine) + leftover fondue toppings to make a make-your-own-risotto-bowl situation
saturday:
- snack dinner saturday
- finger foods, apps, cheese + crackers, various produce*, roasted veggies, dips, frozen chicken nuggets, anything goes - as long as it feels like a break from cooking
- *I'm a relatively picky eater, so I use this time to try produce I haven't necessarily liked before + experiment with different ways to cook/eat said produce - serving a new food alongside, say, cheese and crackers makes it less threatening to me
- see my "snack dinner" highlight on my Instagram for more posts
- aaaand this article in favor of snack dinner (+ ideas)
- my favorite place to learn cheese plates is this instagram account or her book
- our wedding anniversary tradition is to subscribe to a cheese of the month club - a nod to our dating days and a way to celebrate all year
