I’ve often thought New Year’s Day Brunch is the perfect social event. None of the pressure of New Year’s Eve – no pressure to drink, no pressure to bring a date, you can dress -up in your new Christmas digs or dress -down in those tried and true jean..
And, it’s New Year’s Day so it’s all about fresh starts and new beginnings. A refreshing way to spend a late morning, early afternoon.
About the only booze one can expect is a Bloody Mary or Champagne Mimosa, should you choose to take an honorary New Yea’s Day sip. Nonetheless, completely optional.
This is a ideal day to do family pot luck , eventually, members may have a special dish or two to which people look forward like homemade crepe smothered in molasses . Or it’s a fun day to try new recipes. A New Year’s Day Brunch is also a perfect day to converse – bring back the art of conversation.
Instead of focusing on late night partying of New Year’s Eve – start a great new tradition – New Year’s Day Brunch, the perfect holiday..
