What’s for Dinner?

A mountain of mushrooms, again! Along with a huge pile o’ leeks, and a cute little pumpkin, amongst the other winter veggie staples! I’m perfectly poised for a Friday night pizza fest, plus home movie (after movie) night – all those Academy Award nominees we haven’t yet managed to see! Add in an Oscar celebration complete with veggie-inspired festive finger foods, and a weeknight Mardi Gras bash, and this week anything but the same ‘ol, same ‘ol!
