Weekend brunch

What I love about living with Empar is that we have the same sleeping patterns. We both like to sleep in and we get up late in the morning, especially at weekends.

We say ‘Bon dia’ to each other in silence, as our bodies gradually become accustomed to consciousness. Noon: it’s brunch day! What’s more, it’s sunny today.

We take a table in the street. Our house is on the ground floor and overlooks a pedestrianised street. Taking out the table is our way of extending our house, of living in a shared space.

We make a chain and Empar passes me things through the window. We dress the table with our tablecloths and napkins, place fresh flowers in the centre of the table and set out plates overflowing with delicious food. Our menu consists of scrambled eggs, cheeses, pa amb tomaca, pastries of all kinds and green tea with almonds and cinnamon.

By savouring the pleasure of this ritual and the feel of the sun on our skin, we enjoy a special morning that recharges us with energy and positivity.

And you, do you also have brunch at the weekend?
