Once again, I opened my mouth one too many times...
You know the whole click list shopping and they bring it directly to your car. Well, I was never on board nor understood it. I am so old school to a fault. Saturday mornings I figure out meals for the week, make my shopping list and off I go. Who would actually shop for groceries on your computer and then drive to the store, which you have do to anyway just to have some person deliver to your car.
Recently one weekend, we were snowed in. More snow than I wanted to deal with. I was much more interested in having a movie marathon in my pajamas than go out in the blizzard for groceries. Well, Monday came around and I realized that we were not in good shape for dinner. I had a Bunco game scheduled for that night and I wouldn't arrive back home on my bus until 15 minutes before game time. That in addition, I still needed to wrap my Bunco gift and get dinner started.
So, there I found myself on my lunch break at work...thinking. I needed to get groceries fast and before I got home. I caved. I ate my words once again and caved! I got online and ordered my groceries. Husband picked me up at my bus stop, we drove to the store, groceries were in our vehicle within 10 minutes.
I recently saw a story about a place in Portland, OR called "Cheese & Crack Snack Shop". They are taking the food world by storm in Portland and known for their small plates...and they do a Brie Brulee!!! I decided to recreate their "Our Favorites Sampler Plate".
Our little platter included olives, pepperoni, salame, fig jam, dijon mustard, Cambozola cheese, green olive tapenade, Porter cheese, honey, Feta cheese, fresh baked baguette, and yes, I even bruleed my brie!!
