A Sojourn of Sorts....

       Though I can't say that like Lawrence Welk, who was an admirer of Tiny Bubbles, unlike the recession plagued nation we find ourselves to be, who seem mired to the

 concept of giant bubbles, and seem to always looking for another one to burst, I can say that my fishing expeditions into the culinary trailblazing I do every so

 often, puts me in the delusionary position of being a sojourner of mild appreciation for flavor profiles that with the labor intensified side of things,

 weaves me so much further in, that I'll ever be out.
      This time, while Joyce is somewhat away from the chicken coop, Steven found it within himself to dance the

 light fantastic, for Joyce's collection of misfits that call themselves once a month, the "Bunco Squad" of diversity. Along with the traditional and all too easy Sour Cream Almond Torte, I did some crab cakes with as you 

can see,worchestshire sauce, mustard,cilantro,garlic multicolored peppers, and a trickle of spices and the lazy ends of Panko, formed, rolled and fried, and put on a

platter to display their nuances of culinary artistry.  Then, baking off multiple handfuls of potatoes, I sliced, scraped out and proceeded to add the

 permutations of ideas, that included,cilantro, garlic fresh herbs from the garden(sage, rosemary, winter savory and thyme)and some common mozzarella and yogurt,

 and enthralled all of that in the oven for 25 minutes or so, to give the cheese topping a chance to show a little color and presto, chango, we have an appetizer,an entree and a

 dessert to delight the Dicey Women of Bunco to no end...
      Though I have no ruby red slippers, and I am in no way muttering Auntie Em, Auntie Em, I gleefully have

followed the yellow brick road into the kitchen, and as I am known, as Steven, better watch your speed in the danger zone, Child, I can only wish all of you a sparkling tidbit of

intuitive harangue as it were, don't make a habit of slipping into unconsciousness while reading these parfaits that so often find themselves somewhere in the future!!!!!!!
