eight of our dearest friends joined us for the food & fun. {two were out of town. i am determined to get the ten of us together in the next year. & to take a picture together. it's totally happening.}
our celebration began with orange & grapefruit water, mimosas, and grapefruit juice & sparkling wine {what is this drink called? certainly it has a name! none of us could think of it, nor was a quick google search any help.}
the star beverage of the brunch was amy & ogden's oyster shooters! fresh oysters from the fish market, the zing zang bloody mary mix, a little red wine vinegar, vodka, & a little worchestershire. it was delicious!! & quite fun to drink oysters out of shot glasses.

homemade biscuits served with blake's carolina pulled pork, homemade apple butter that cooked in my slow cooker all night long, & a delicious chevre goat cheese spread with arugula & chives, & homegrown lemon thyme.
