I’ve been getting ready for 2 parties Saturday night that I’m making all the food for–One for my buddy Dave and one for my Daddy-O’s 66th birthday. Shopping at 3 stores? Check. Sauces made yesterday. Cupcakes today. And candied carrots. Yes, you heard me. CANDIED CARROTS.
I’m making those Spicy Deviled Eggs with Candied Bacon too. That’s 5 dozen hard boiled eggs there. Yep five dozen. 60 eggs. 120 deviled eggs. And I betcha a dollar that they’ll all be gone.
Here’s what else is on the menu:
Glazed Spareribs a la James Beard
“Steak Sandwiches”–Open faced steak sandwich on baguette with horseradish cream
Shrimp canape with lemon aioli and dill
Tyropita-filo triangles with spinach and cheese
Nana’s Crab Mold with crackers
Vegetables with Green Goddess
Maple Carrot Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Icing and Candied Carrots
Better get busy–that’s still a lot of food to prepare. And I have to work all day tomorrow at the day job. Yikes! Recipes and pictures to come!
