MENU: WHEN INSANITY MAKES SENSE.

Dinner with the Marchand's & the Walbank's....

Diane Marchand made a fabulous casserole with the wonderful ingredients of potatoes, turnips, creamy mushrooms with white wine, parsley, cream cheese, spinach, onions and topped with gruyere cheese. I am officially back in love with casseroles, it has been over 25 years, back when I didn't know any better.

I made deep fried chicken since Tom Walbank joined us.

I also made a salad that included artichoke hearts since Emilie Marchand loves them. I also added some baby spinach, tomato and fresh mozzarella. Diane made a fantastic dijon vinigarette.

We had warm baguettes that we ate with butter.

I made an apple crostata with real whip cream that we had for dessert with very strong coffee.

Walter Van Beirendock is a fashion designer, and by looking at his designs below he seems completely bonkers. I like using his photos for meals that are entirely off the hook... Last night's dinner + Walter Van Beirendonck = Insanity that makes sense.
