Pink PeonyFruit & Cheese PlateThe Garden in the Backyard

Sometimes simplicity is all you really need for dinner. I found some gorgeous pink peonies, and the following at Berkeley Bowl and made a dinner for two in the garden:

1/3lb Pierre Robert Triple Creme Brie (a full flavored, super creamy brie with a slight funk, France, Cow’s Milk)

1/3lb Petite Basque (a creamy but light on the tongue and slightly sweet white cheese from the Basque area that borders France within Spain, made of Sheep’s milk)

1 demi baguette from Bay Boulangers (Cole Valley location here in San Francisco), sliced and toasted in the panini machine

1 pluot, sliced
1 green apple, sliced
1 yellow peach, sliced
