Playing with food...

What happens when I get nostalgic? I make foods I had when I was little, and take them to a whole new level.

No - not culinarily!


"Potato boats" the way I used to have them. It is a baked potato + cheese, on a bed of spinach "seaweed". The sails back then weren't quite so elaborate, though.

Yes. I made a whole fleet. And yes, the sail configuration tells us the featured ship is a brigantine.

Most sincerely yours,
