Mmm! Tonight we had cooking club at Summer's house! We started
off with some amaretto cocktails.
Yumi made this carrot soup with star anise that was so light
and fluffy like a CLOUD!
Suzanne made this feta that was baked in a hot hot pan with
hot hot oil and hot hot honey and I burned myself on it TWO
TIMES. It was worth it, though.
Serving suggestion: atop a cracker, with a slice of beet,
some honey, and some cracked pepper. MMM!
Ohmygod Nancy's salad. It was spinach with dried cranberries,
apples, and this warm bacon dressing with so much glorious
bacon. SO GOOD.
Summer made the main course, which was totally awesome pork
wrapped in bacon, with potatoes, dates and apples. BACON TWICE
IN ONE NIGHT!
I forgot to take a picture of my orange cardamom cake!
Look, Friday almost had Ash's entire head in her mouth:
Summer and Friday!
Happy dog!
Enough pictures already!
Okay, there are a lot of pictures of the following activity
but it deserves a lot of attention because it is something
really special. One of my hidden talents is that I can make
INCREDIBLY realistic and amazing hand-mouth fart sounds. Nancy
had never heard this before, and Summer captured her reactions
on film:
She is like "No way! NO EVEN WAY!!"
It is ALWAYS FUNNY.
Seriously amazed:
Nancy can do it too!
Except it's really hard to keep doing it and NOT take a break
to laugh.
I'm seriously considering open stage.
