The answer: Why, she'd stuff a capon and whip up a fabulous sauce.The card is by Cara Scissoria in L.A. I've never heard of them, but there are some amusing cards on the web site.
We've been watching a lot of Julia (on DVD) lately. Especially the chicken episodes. Remember the Chicken Sisters? Miss Broiler, Miss Fryer, Miss Roaster, Miss Caponette, Miss Stewer, and Old Madame Hen! We got ourselves a nice poularde to roast on Christmas Day.
A poularde is an immature (not yet laying) hen that's been fattened up. Yum!
Happy Winter Solstice to all!

ReplyDeleteHappy birthday and many happy returns!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Walt!
ReplyDeleteYour birthday comes on my second favorite day of the year (after the first Saturday in May which is KY derby day). I like the winter solstice since it means that every day will be longer from here on until the summer solstice arrives.
Thanks to everyone for your good wishes. We wish you could all be here to share food and wine and fun.
ReplyDeleteNow, as evelyn said, the days will start getting longer and we can look forward to spring.
