Well after a few weeks of madness, cooking, tears and adventure, here I am in France cooking in a Chateau. I love it here, although do wonder what the hell I think I'm doing. My new boss often says 'it's a game, life's a game, do you think I know what I'M doing?' and... 'in fact everything I've been successful at doing I started out not having a clue'. And as for me... I'm coming to realize this slowly about life. Maybe I'm a slow learner, that we can never really approach a situation with our previous experience, it's all brand new today. We just have to run with it and FIND the pleasure and the energy and the laughter!
So I have a quirky little apartment in an old abandoned school house, my cookbooks are all lined up and looking pretty on shelves in the kitchen and last night I whipped up a tray of the most delicious little mushrooms appetizers. Think they're a winner, as suggested by the gardener and so simple! This is the food I feel excited by, not fussy just yummy. Mushrooms - of any shape or description with the stalk removed and the centre hollowed out, filled with Boursin and drizzled with chilli oil, roasted in a hot oven for approximately 25 mins and voila! Consumed with gusto. The only concern really is have you made enough?
