The name alone is pretty dreamy…

And Viv, yes, wouldn’t you say it’s something about *Seattle*? I mean, really.

Pusekatt, no progress yet on the dukkah, I’m sorry to report. It’s been a busy week. Sigh. I’ve really got to get my priorities in order.

Dave, your 22-month-old sounds like quite the champ herself! It must be fun to watch her tastes change, although I imagine it might also be frustrating? Since I was something of a food scaredy-cat (or at least not very fun about food) as a kid, I think my father would be *thrilled* to see me now. I’m sure your daughter is on her way…

And Thomas, Jenny, and wee Eero, YOU are wonderful. I hope the leftovers were tasty…

My 22-month old had pasta w/ sweet italian sausage in tomato sauce, a handful of roasted soybeans, an apple and some raisins last night. This array was a little unusual, she usually likes things uncooked. But, her preferences change daily.

Wow, I think at that age I was happy eating a mashed banana, hehe.
The nibbles sounded delicious…I adore salmon.
I will be on the lookout for the name Eero as a future chef…
BTW, any progress on the Dukkah?

Eero doesn’t even sound human! If he doesn’t grow up to become a Michelin stared chef, I’ll be amazed!!!

And talking of chocolate apples, there is always the ‘chocolate pudding fruit’ (<>Diospyros digyna<>), which I believe is grown in Hawaii where it is known as the black persimmon. It is the size of a small apple and under it’s green skin has flesh which is soft, sweet, and dark-chocolate coloured! It doesn’t taste of much though.

Another fruit which intrigues me is the custard apple, which has white flesh which is supposed to have a sweet/sour flavour reminiscent of bananas and pineapples. Oh, the joy of fruit!
