What do you serve with Snow?
The possibility of snow makes front page news here in Savannah. According to the newspaper this morning, it has been 14 years since Savannah has seen snow. My daughter has never seen snow and is utterly convinced that she will this evening. If I were back in North Carolina, or even Atlanta, everyone would be rushing out to the grocery and liquor stores for supplies, just in case we were "snowed in". One of the many great things about the south, and Savannah in particular, is that pretty much any event, and certainly the possibility for snow, is an excuse for a party. It's 9:00 am, and 42 degrees (what does that tell you) and I'm thinking about who to invite and what to serve. I'm leaning towards pizza, but my favorite version topped with arugula, prosciutto, and an egg is an impossibility as I could not procure fresh eggs given that the farmer's market is closed for the winter. Perhaps Jaques Pepin's fabulous beef braised in red wine and chocolate mousse for dessert. . .now all we need is the snow.
