Nikki Starr from the Flylady family is thinking of doing a food show on BlogTalkRadio. Ooooo, I love food talk! And I love food…here’s a rundown, in no particular order:
- chocolate (Ritter Sport with Marcipan or Chocolate Mousse) I’m not a ‘high percentage’ chocolate snob – I’d rather have a huge, cheap Easter egg that you can break into hundreds of pieces and nibble all day long…
- cherry-filled chocolates
- salt n’ vinegar crisps
- fresh raspberries (especially with a light sprinkling of sugar and some single cream poured over)
- maki sushi
- a runny boiled egg with buttered, toast soldiers
- foie gras or warm, fried lobe of foie gras
- champagne – any time of the day 😉
- gin & tonic
- crisp white wine in a bedazzlingly clean glass on a stiff white tablecloth
- a good bloody steak with béarnaise sauce
- chips/fries with mayonnaise or Scottish ‘chippy’ sauce
- huge platter of fresh veggies with Goma dressing for dipping
- Ben & Jerry’s Phishfood icecream
- bacon (it makes anything taste good)
- maraschino cherries
- prawns/gambas
- lemon meringue pie
- a Danish meatball sandwich (with roasted onions, red cabbage, pickled cucumber and remoulade) from Benny’s Pølsevogn (Benny’s Hotdog Stand)
Looking over the list, quite a few of these items will be appearing on our table this weekend…who’d have thunk?! Bon appétit and bon weekend! 🙂
One of our family holiday traditions is that we make our own chocolate covered cherries 🙂 Maybe I'll make that my holiday post this week so you can see the recipe! LOL
Never mind the recipe – just send me a box. Shall I DM you my address? 🙂
