Honeydew Cucumber Gazpacho
Brunch with my girlfriends is extremely sacred these days. As we reminisce on rooftop pool parties, single life, tour life, babies, and divorce, it’s a reminder that life is moving quickly but the thing that truly connected us in the beginning remains the same today... our love of FOOD. Gazpacho, like my friends is fun, spicy and sweet. It is the perfect whimsical first course for a day in the sun with your girls. Dress it up cute and laugh way too hard. You deserve it.
