I wore this to a fun outing with friends as we strolled off to the park. It was a pre-holiday event for our close friends before they went off for a two month trip of leisure. But, I'm excited for them ... between a few of us we're also taking a rotation schedule to pet and house-sit for them during their expedition.

Each of us were to make a dish or prepare hor'devours, so we decided to make grilled zucchini as a side with roasted red pepper and broiled eggplant sandwiches with goat cheese, and homemade pesto generously spread across fresh baked crusty bread. Everyone knows that bread selection makes all of the difference! It was easy to make, yet an entirely satisfying and savoury plate. But enough about the food!
