mm mm good.


earlier this evening i had a couple special guests for dinner...farah and nickole. we all share the love for food so i decided to think like a top chef contestant and make something interesting. i came up with the following dishes: a salad of mixed greens, toasted walnuts, dried cranberries and shaved pecorino in a shallot honey vinaigrette dressing. the main dish consisted of seared scallops over mashed cauliflower and potatoes w/ roasted asparagus and dried cranberries that had been soaked in the vinaigrette. 
the flavors meshed wonderfully and we practically licked our plates! 
is it bad to want to eat my mashed potatoes/cauliflower leftovers at 1:30 am?

The food was great. I could've eaten the whole bowl of salad. I love Marie's dinner parties.
