Prentis Hemphill, a very smart person who guest-blogged about McDonalds and its evil ways a while back, now has his very own blog. You should read it.

Lazy Sunday frittata

Ok, I realize that it is no longer Sunday, and, in fact, quite a few days have elapsed since it was Sunday.

But I nonetheless would like to share with you my lovely lazy Sunday frittata experience.

I went with my friend Erin to the farmers market, where we purchased chard, tofu, and assorted other goodies including an amazing kind of melon that I had never heard of before.

Then we went to our friend Janet‘s house and made a chard frittata from Vegan Brunch, with roasted potatoes, sweet potatoes, and broccoli from Cook Food. We ate the melon while we cooked and then our friend Red came and joined us. At which point we took all our beautiful food outside and ate in the backyard.

Best. Lazy. Sunday. Brunch. Ever.
