One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating. ~Luciano Pavarotti and William Wright, Pavarotti, My Own Story

Food IS love made tangible... it is a gift that meets the needs of the soul as well as the body. I have found that preparing and presenting food with great care is worth the effort....creating an atmosphere that warmly invites guests to linger. As Julia Child said, "Nothing is too much trouble, if it turns out as it should."

The Best Bacon Wraps
Here's my variation on an appetizer recipe I found on another blog: Bacon Wraps.
I use pre-cooked bacon, bold or smoked almonds and sweet and sour sauce.
Warm the bacon in the microwave for 6-10 seconds. Then wrap a slice of bacon around 2 almonds and put a toothpick through each one. Brush each wrap with sweet and sour sauce. Bake on aluminum foil-lined cookie sheet in a 350 degree oven for about 6 minutes; turn them over and bake another 4 minutes. Eat immediately. This is an amazing flavor combination.
