DRINKS / LIBATIONSWe will assume this event will be an adult gathering, so if children will be present, we need to provide suggestions to make them enjoy the party without any side effects except a bit of sugar...but we do have a couple of non-alcoholic punches lined up - and there is always the 'Shirley Temple'.

Morel & Ramps Frittata - A Michigan Spring BreakfastOnce in Turkey, I asked a young man what made up a typical breakfast. He said, "The usual. goat cheese, olives, tea, an egg, if you wish." If that young fellow were here, and posed the same question to me, I would tell him, "Morels, ramps, eggs, cheese, bacon, French-pressed coffee, a biscuit, if you wish." This is a glorious… |

This recipe employs one duck, but you will be able to serve each of 6 to 8 diners a lovely bowl of this 'soup course' delight. What we have here is not a consomme, not a soup, and not really, by classical… |
