TOMATO TART…An eventful tart!
“A world without tomatoes is like a string quartet without violins.”Laurie Colwin I had a Tomato Tart on my mind. Was it Tuesdays with Doris? Was it Mondays with Martha? It wasn’t Saturday Snapshots @ Cook Sisters as that’s a non-foodie post, it wasn’t the Friday snapshot at Dhanggits‘ as that is a sweet one. Was it the book Tuesdays with Dorie…or is it just old age approaching? Saw a pie I fell in love with the minute I set my eyes on it, but couldn’t find it in my bursting bookmarked folder. It was a tomato tart & a lovely one…one without eggs in the filling & it sang…

I SPY A PIE…IT’S SAVOURY & IT’S FOR IVY!
“Men may come and men may go…..but Pie goes on for ever.” George Augustus Sala All savoury pie roads lead to Ivy’s @ Kopiaste this September. There’s a savoury pie food event at the Greek gals place & it’s been on my mind the whole month. With the weather getting cooler here, pie times are beckoning. Have a few bookmarked pies on my list, but with September quickly disappearing before my eyes, I’d better send these little rustic savoury galettes Ivy’s way. Made mini galettes with left-over home-made pizza dough from here. I flavoured the basic pizza dough with chili flakes, Italian seasoning & garlic powder (loads of it). Got…

ADDICTED TO FOOD BLOGGA’S ADDICTION…A BEAUTIFUL PEACH & PLUM GALETTE!
“We should look for someone to eat and drink with before looking for something to eat and drink…” Epicurus Galette a la Plums & Peaches! If someone said to me that they made a galette, I would just nod & get on my way, maybe wouldn’t even bat an eyelid! Never heard of something like that before (seriously I haven’t, even if that means you think I live under a rock!). Now if someone showed me a picture of a galette they baked, & if that someone had the word addiction in the blog post, & if that someone was the ever so talented Food Blogga gal, it would grab…

TO QUICHE OR NOT TO QUICHE…A mushroom quiche & wholesome lunchboxes!
” I asked the barmaid for a quickie. The man next to me said, ‘It’s pronounced ‘quiche’ “… …(on occasional perils of speaking a foreign language)Luigi Amaduzzi, Italian Ambassador in Britain. A MUSHROOM QUICHE… At home, the lines are firmly drawn as far as the quiche story goes…or more suitably, the ‘quiche’ war. On one side, stand the son & me, who are not great egg fans at all; me far worse than him! The rest on the other side. It’s the quintessential question…to quiche or not to quiche? One wonder’s why I make it anyway. Well, firstly the die-hard baker in me overtakes the egg-disliker; & then, I actually…
