Moving and Digesting

Bye to another lazy Sunday and hello to a busy week. Given my week's hectic schedule I have to pack a bunch of errands and appointments in one day. I need a new pair of fall sunglasses from Comme de Garcon, A gray Yves St. Laurent sweater I'll probably just pick up at Bergdorf Goodman, a selection of wines and scotch for my Sir to savor upon his return that I'll get from that Astor place wine mega mall everyone seams to adore. Biscuits for our two dalmatians Pepi and Pepe, and a birthday gift, a bag to be exact, for Sir's adorable niece Tulip, from Le Sportsac. To top it all off I have a 1pm sharp appointment with my chiropractor Dr. Lenore and a 5ish timeslot with my astrologer Keith.

Ahhh, I do too much.

There is no way I'll be able to squeeze a couple of hours of lunch at a corner bistro through that mess or prepare a substantial meal at home before hand. But with the right snack I can get through all of it, and you know what, so could you. My housekeeper slash goddess Agatha that Sir got me for Valentine's Day last year organized a fantastic snack for me.

Pomme et Fromage

Agatha's Ingredients:


-Freshly picked Apples (it is apple picking season you know)
-1 plump Lemon





-1 Wedge of full fat Brie (Agatha says if you are going to eat cheese, enjoy it-none of the skim or low fat stuff)

Agatha's Tools:

-Apple Slicer (it cuts the slices evenly AND removes the core which contains cyanide in the seeds!)
-Sharp Knife



Wash the Apples and slice them using the Apple Slicer. Squeeze a bit of fresh Lemon Juice over the Apples to keep them from browning. Beware! If you are allergic to sulfates, Lemon Juice is a sulfate!

Pack the apple slices in a cute Tupperware with the Brie.

(Thank goodness Agatha did it all for me)

When you are ready to snack, cut a slice of Brie and place on an Apple slice. Enjoy!

The Lemon, Apple, Brie combo is a refreshing pick-me-up snack.

Keep on trucking everyone. I've got a great little dessert for you next time for enjoying after or before one of my most favorite activities.
