Lit-Tacular Round-up!

Our 27^th spectacular ‘Tacular featured dishes from, or inspired by, literature. We enjoyed a delicious array of bookish delights. So, what’d we eat?

·        Ayako and James kicked things off with some wee mini quiches, inspired by Julie & Julia

·        From Game of Thrones, Karina and Christian ladled out a delicious chestnut soup topped with crispy sage and pancetta

·        Mei and Jeremy roasted up a Watership Down-inspired rabbit with carrots and, I think, chimichurri sauce (yes, a bit of a ‘cheat’ since it wasn’t technically a dish from a book…but it was yummy, so we won’t dole out any penalties this time :D)

·        I stewed up a lamb, prune, and apricot stew from The Hunger Games, served on top of Israeli couscous…fit for the residents of the Capitol!

·        Kate and Ian baked up a Thoreau-inspired hazelnut raisin bread…we even got to see the kneading action, in action!

·        Ayako baked up yummy Madeleines, from Proust’s Remembrance of Things Past

·        And…Jenn and Daniel brought a refreshing key lime pie, from Nora Ephron’s Heartburn

Marco, Laura, Sara, and Dan…we missed you!

The next ‘Tacular will be Balltacular, hosted by the McMompsons on Saturday, March 28^th. Bring us your round and roly-poly dishes!
