Some people celebrate the New Year by going out New Year’s Eve and drinking large quantities of their favorite adult beverage. I celebrate by throwing a scrumptious New Year’s Day Brunch.

Of course, there are adult beverages for those who need the “hair of the dog” or for those who abstained the night before.

Here’s the video of the New Year’s Day Brunch 2015. I hope it makes you hungry and inspires you to throw your own brunch!
