We went to a friend’s Tuesday evening for a lovely meal. I brought along a bottle of Sangiovese and two hors d’oeuvres.
Jim is highly allergic to fish and I made a smoked salmon mousse that I piped onto endive spears. Then I made a version of boursin (on this blog), a cream cheese spread for crackers to which I added a few spinach leaves to make it stand out from the fishy spread and to get some healthy spinach into my favorite meat eater!
It worked! He liked it! Our hostess made chicken sausages with vegetable sauce, and roasted potatoes. The aroma was fantastic as I approached her door. Her cool cat was at the door ready to greet guests, meowing and wanting to be picked up. I swear if I live to be a hundred, this is the only fur “stole” I’ll ever wear! He loves to drape himself over your shoulder or around your neck. PETA can’t object to a live fur stole that wants to be there.
I’ve been owned by very strange cats in my life, but this one takes the cake. And the fish mousse…. Dee
