Moments in Our Sunday


I love Sundays. Well rested from sleeping in Saturday, revived from Friday nightlife- there is an easy flow. We wandered down the Fishbridge Dog Run with coffee from Made Fresh Daily for Pilgrim to let out his steam. He made a new friend.

Although the air had cooled a bit from the whopping Friday night high of 76 degrees, the sunshine and blue skies encouraged us to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, to seek out brunch. We stopped at a produce stand for fresh fruit and veggies for the week.

Granted there is a tremendous number of pitch-perfect brunch venues in Carroll Gardens-Cobble Hill, we couldn't resist our favored Char No. 4. We each had a few smoky bourbon Bloody Mary cocktails with house-made pickles and shared three plates (brisket hash special with sunny side up eggs, goat cheese/horseradish dressed radicchio, the pork nuggets and house-smoked bacon). A few friends showed up, noticing our post on facebook.



Before heading to the grocery store, we decided to have margaritas at Lobo. A bit excessive, I know, but we did have an active morning and long trek from Manhattan....right? We took notice of a foursquare check-in that offered a price-reduction of my drink, and 1/2 priced appetizer. We folded and requested a side of buttery-ripe guacamole.
