I loved trying out all the new recipes, but it was very tiring.<BR/><BR/>I suppose I should be building up a repertoire of easy entertaining recipes, so that each time I can try a couple of new ones, and do a couple of old ones.<BR/><BR/>Hey, and even though BBQs are easier, I don't think anyone would enjoy them any less! I love BBQs!<BR/><BR/>xox SarahSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00261274546097701065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8787347.post-59553706048101610582008-05-04T15:34:00.000+10:002008-05-04T15:34:00.000+10:00I feel tired from reading about all the work.

Having said that, it still takes a whole day and I wonder if it's just easier to do BBQs in future. But then I have the contradiction of trying new recipes and creating something fantastic that people will enjoy.thanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8787347.post-84425106389282842162008-05-04T07:00:00.000+10:002008-05-04T07:00:00.000+10:00What a lot of work!

Those tartelette cases look gorgeous :) I love Nigella's blini but I find that just buckwheat flour tastes a little bitter so I use half buckwheat half normal...not sure if this is because I have unsophisticated tastebuds or because my flour is crap...good on you for persevering when they didn't work out though :)hungryandfrozenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01077401868108124070noreply@blogger.com
