Your Weekly Manhattan Country Club Update: April 22, 2024


Dear Member,

Welcome to this week’s edition of The Quad, your Club newsletter that covers all things happening at the Bay Club, plus a little extra. Loving it? Not loving it? Hit reply and let us know.

Happy Earth Day to all! Let’s do our best to take care of the earth today and every day.

​​​​​​What We’re Watching
From the football film “Rudy” to “Any Given Sunday”, here is a great line-up of the best sports movies. Make some organic popcorn (a great source of fiber) and settle in for a solo watch or enjoy as an audience with the whole family.

 

A Little T.LC.

This week, we wanted to share a super heathy and easy recipe with you. It’s also totally delicious! This grain-free Dutch Baby (or puffy pancake to you and I) not only looks impressive, but every bite is delightful. You can find the full recipe here. We prefer the original version and like to serve it with some organic maple syrup and sliced up bananas or blueberries. It’s the perfect ‘whenever meal’ for all, and you can even pre-make the mixture, leave it in the fridge overnight and the just pour and bake in the morning.
