I almost added olives because of @Tragicfarinelli’s pic!
Ok…garlic stuffed olives and olive tapenade hummus. Dessert! And I do love Crunchmaster. I really miss rep’ing for them and getting them free. I don’t taste the olives but I do get a good tang.

Trying to give my body energy. Eating has been an issue. Anyhoo…that little wedge fried my throat and my tongue
Cooking is one of the things I’m most passionate about. I love to have people over for dinner. Here are some recent creations.

Wow! @JamboTheGreat !! What especially are the two bottom creations? Do you make a beautiful printed “menu” to go along with your creations?? If so, good for you. I have done that in the past… maybe in the future and maybe not. Love it!
Bon appetit, everyone
Food. in moderation, is life.
The bottom two are baklava which is actually super easy to make, my nine year old can make it now and the other one is posh fish and chips. Cod loin wrapped in crispy parma ham, pea and mint purée, asparagus and crispy garlic and Parmesan potato slices.
I did a printed menu once for my wife before we were married for an anniversary during lockdown. I called my restaurant ‘Oh Mio Merluzzo’ which translated to ‘Oh my cod’ and I was really proud that I not only managed to make a great pun but I did it in Italian.
What fun and happy memories!
There is a pun thread here at TS if you are interested!
The one creation looked like baklava, I wondered if somehow you had reinvented it to something non-dessert! Looks luscious and the ice cream also!
Haha thank you, I’ll definitely have to look out for the pun group!
