ReplyDeleteHey! Rutabagas look SOOOO good. I will remake the green beans but with some modifications. I made WAY too many rolls. Wish we were there!!!
ReplyDeletethe rutabaga dish looks transcendent. was it wildly embraced?
ReplyDeletethe rutabaga fans were into it. i don't know if "wildly" describes it. it was best in the morning when i ate a few spoonfuls whilst preparing it. it got a little overwhelmed by the massive feast surrounding it. i did find the flavors transcendent, actually. subtle and nuanced.
DeleteI read a thing recently saying that chocolate has no place at a Thanksgiving table, and I think I agree. Thanksgiving is an all-American holiday, and chocolate is an exotic flavor.
ReplyDeletei think you're correct. the flavor profile is just off for thxG.
DeleteI always trust Lula's taste. Always. She and I talked today as she window-shopped at the River Woods mall. I made rutabagas today and added them to a tasty barley/lentil soup. Love you! Feelin' Christmassy!
