I’m a breakfast person, so naturally when I was in Denver for a short visit, I carved out one Saturday morning to spend with my dear newlywed friends – both obsessed with cooking, food and delightful mealtime conversation.
I toted my camera along and was able to snap a few photos of them enjoying their meal, secretly plotting my “thank you” to them for such a wonderful time.
The meal itself was lovely – spicy potato hash with poached eggs, fresh local berries and perfectly bold coffee. The conversation was memorable – I couldn’t have been more happy that my friend found an amazing guy. And the photos I snapped were perfect for my top-secret-thank-you mission.
I was able to infuse the photos on the cover of the recipe journal and throughout the book, and I also customized the text with some of their culinary mantras I overheard while they were in the kitchen cooking. This turned out to be the perfect gift for two food-obsessed newlyweds, and one they will be using for many, many more mealtime gatherings.
