101 Appetizers

aww, so cute and cuddly I could just stab it with a toothpick

I think we all know how I feel about the Minimalist (love him!) so I’m happy to present Mark Bittman’s newest seasonal resource you can no longer live without.  I’m using it tonight, and you should too.

101 Easy Appetizers in Under 20 Minutes

So far I’ve made the white bean dip with sage, which was delicious but I recommend adding lemon juice.  The quick olive tapenade rocked, as did the goat cheese plus fig jam.  Honestly, I’d love to eat like Cher in the movie Mermaids and have nothing but appetizers for dinner every night.  If it’s on a stick, bringeth to me. 

like a good cream puff, this film holds up well!

Okay, so now you know what I’ve been doing.  Cooking up cute wittle scrumptious tasty bites of joy.  Plus I made a weird, misshapen fat-laden pot roast, mistook a rutabaga for a turnip, and made many botched batches of fudge.  Speaking of which, what happened to my fudge mojo and how can I get it back?  Any ideas for how to create a fudge that’s not too grainy, not too greasy, and not too rubbery?  I want my fudge like Goldilocks- just right.
