Dinner party that is. Dinner party was a success (not counting the "all immigrants are scum and ought not to be allowed into the country" 'discussion' at the end. Sigh. Why can't otherwise intelligent people recognise that this issue is mostly misreported in the press and that there aren't 'millions' of illegal immigrants running around and 'sponging off' the NHS. Repeat after me, London is not representative of the rest of the UK, London is not representative of the rest of the UK). Anyhow, the first and second courses at dinner seemed to be greeted most appreciatively.

Dessert however (chocolate brulee, consisting of white chocolate brulee poured over fresh raspberries and then covered with fast-grilled sugar) elicited cries of rapture and joy. Every single person asked for the recipe and stood over me with a club while I photocopied it for the clamouring hordes. LMK if anyone wants it and I'll put it up in my LJ (am too lazy to do it if no one actually does want it).

Huh. No amount of eyelash batting is going to get you off the hook, missy!

Nope. Whining, begging or pleading Will Not Work. No chocolate brulee for Temaris.

Contemplates Tem's face when Mandragora serves up chocolate brulee to everyone but her...

Hmm, you know it might almost be worth all the trouble of having to prepare and make the brulee just to see the expression.

It's a deal (not to mention becoming more tempting by the minute...)!
