I have an amuse bouche that starts this whole thing out: a roasted pear tart topped with roquefort cheese and onion marmalade, a palate cleansing course of sparkling berry water, and I'm ending things after the dessert with some chocolate truffles (they're a bit crazy flavored). These three "courses" aren't printed on the menu because they're to be a surprise for the guests.
So, as you can see, a lot of work to get done! Plus, I start a whole new quarter of school. I'm teaching an International cuisine class (how appropriate).
There are some interesting Bon Appetit recipes this week, so I'm looking forward to the them..I hope you are too!
