Ann from the wet coast-I tried the quince with some lovely brie on crackers.....now that WAS yummy. I am glad I helped to fill your head Jane. Learn something new everyday............
Anyone have any good recipes for chicken feet??? LOL. Sue what kind of Aussie wine do you think would go with chicken feet? I guess I will have to take that wine appreciation course so I can learn how to food match.
G'day eh!

    How about a rich stock with the chicken feet? I'm envious of all the wonderful wines you're sampling. The Wolf Blass Green Label would be just my cup of tea ... er, I mean wine.
    Bern you will be happy to hear that the feisty Olympic athletes from your adopted country of Oz have draped an enormous flag, picturing a boxing 'roo, from the windows of their section of the athletes' village. At first there was a big fuss put up by the IOC but, happily, the boxing 'roo stays.
    Hugs,

    They sure do, especially this time of year! Thank you for enjoying a sunset for me. To get it absolutely right you must have both feet in the warm water and a cold beer in your hand - AHHHHHH.
