So I took my own advice and ended up with an intimate (only 3 people) quasi impromptu dinner party on Saturday night. There was new music, check out A.A. Bondy – When The Devil’s Loose, someone did bring a wonderful bottle of never before had wine,, Albet i Noya – Lignum, 2006, Spain, yummy and the menu revolved around what I was craving, elegant appetizers, which made for what felt like a special meal. Virtually everything was purchased in my neighbourhood and took no time to prepare. It went like this, a plate of gorgeous goat’s cheeses with artisan bread, escargots baked in red wine and garlic butter, sauteed sea scallops with leeks in a champagne sauce, a simple garlic and olive oil pasta with fresh parmesan and a cleansing salad accompanied by a homemade vinaigrette. See? Easy!
Looks and sounds absolutely amazing!
Wow, those scallops look AMAZING! I live for those comfortable evenings with good friends, good conversation, good wine and of course, good food! A Saturday evening at home doesn’t sound so bad after all.
