Dinner on the terrace. In sixteen weeks that cedar hedge will be covered with snow. |
On burger night I don't mind having the Maille jar on display, being so attractively French and all:
The ketchup bottle is less charming to the eye so I always squirt some into a container, right now it's a Bonne Maman jar, again attractively French:
Bonne Maman jar holding Heinz ketchup. |
Sweet Potato Fries: they always get a bit charred, maybe I need a lower oven temperature? |
Squeeze the zucchini in a linen towel to get all of the liquid the heck out of it. |
I mixed mine up with fresh herbs from the garden, basil mostly:
Why not use parchment paper? It makes clean-up a breeze:
I layered it with a fresh tomato, some shallots and more basil:
Then added piles of cheese and sliced brown mushrooms:
When throwing raw mushrooms on top of an oven-cooked recipe I think we can all agree that a few glugs of olive oil are needed for optimum roasting:
I served it with buttered parsley potaotes...
...and of course salad.
With more cheese, why not. |
I was able to save the Emma Bridgewater butter dish with Krazy Glue thank goodness. |
I hope your week is off to a fine start. I'm going to be doing plenty of cleaning and organizing before we head off on a trip later this week. I'll let you know how it goes, especially the organizing: I've got a couple of projects up my sleeve.
Take Care Tooties,
