It’s on like DONKEY KONG! These were the first thoughts that came to mind when I read an invitation from Billy, Ellie and Linda. Although it may not have involved any throwing of barrels of collecting of magically hanging bananas, I was extremely excited in anticipation of all the creative dishes that the others were bound to come up with. Then the weeks went past, and I had not even thought about what I was to make and then that excitement turned into a frantic panic of googling and speed browsing cookbooks. For there were some simple laws that we had to follow:

1. Each person will be assigned one of two categories- Savoury or Dessert
2. For Savoury, you MUST use any form of “fruit” in your dish.
3. For Dessert, you MUST use any form of “vegetable” in your dish.
4. Each person will prepare their dishes at home and bring it to the party.

The groups were decided to be Savouriers:

Minh – Eat, Show and Tell

Myself

Simon – The Heart of Food

Ellie – Almost Bourdain

Helen – Grab Your Fork

and the Desserters:

Steph – Raspberri Cupcakes

Karen – Citrus and Candy

Shez – One Bite More

Suze – Chocolatesuze

Billy – A Table for Two

Linda – Eat, Show and Tell

Here Comes the Food
