Thank you for another great quiz
So far, I think maybe half I have right. :)
That salad is beautiful and looks delicious!
I think I know four but I'll have to check tomorrow.
I am quite sure I got them all right. I will be back tomorrow to see.
No. 4 is a good question. I don't know, either.
...well, I know #4 and #6!
The quiz is fun and the salad looks deliciously colorful
Thank you. Happy December.
Guessed at 1-3, no clue on 5, pretty sure I know 4,6, and 7. Fun quiz!
Printed out the pretty salad! I can't find watercress locally but the Whole Foods in Nashville might have it. I remember when my grandmother would send me out to the creek for as much of it as she needed. What I couldn't do with a bunch of that now! Makes me think of my dear grandmother who was quite elderly when I was small as my father was the youngest of her 7 children. His brothers worked out on the farm with their father so my dad worked in the kitchen garden with his mother and he turned out to be a fabulous cook. She taught him to prepare stuffed zucchini blossoms way back in the early 1930s when restaurants might not have even been doing it then.
I guess this is a sample of why food is so tied to memory, right, Jan? Your recipe did it for me!
Happy December to you.
I've got four for sure. Maybe in two others.
What a beautiful salad, full of gorgeous colour.
Happy December!
