Is it really November? 24 days to Thanksgiving! YAY! Even though I’m not American, I have to say Thanksgiving is one of my favourite holidays and I feel privileged to be married to a nice Yankee boy (although we’ll see how I feel about that on Wednesday morning!) so I too can celebrate the wonderful tradition. I have lots of displaced Americans coming this year including my best friend currently stuck in Germany, some blog friends and my brother and his new American wife. It shall be fun! :) But I digress… onto some fun and controversial foodie links!
As much as I think he’s a a bit full of himself, I just can’t help loving his writing and really enjoyed this AA Gil column yesterday. This quote in particular made me snort laugh:
Now it?s still only a rumour; it?s not confirmed. They haven?t actually nailed down the recycled coffin yet, but I think we can safely say that the organic charade and marketing opportunity ? the movement that started out as a cranky health fad and hippie allotment nostalgia and became a Stalinist orthodoxy, that allowed angry urban liberals who didn?t know loam from tilth to tell farmers who didn?t know Notting Hill from Bayswater how to do their business ? is on life support.
And something from the complete opposite end of the spectrum, Ollie reviews the Organic Guide to Ireland.
Lentils lentils lentils. Cheap, yum and versatile. What’s not to love about this link sharing loads of delicious way to use these wonderful pulses?
What’s better than sun-dried tomatoes? Fire roasted tomatoes.
Southern Living have a list of the 10 most popular casseroles. Some of them sound a bit iffy. Thoughts?
Darina Allen talks about using cheaper cuts of meat in these leaner (see what I did there??) times including some interesting recipes!
And because it just wouldn’t be Luscious Links without a gratuitous bacon link - bacon apple pie! YUM!
