Folksy Friday #2

Magic Mushroom Soup!


Personally, I switch from loving Heston to loathing him, he can get a tad annoying for my liking, but the latest 'Chocolate Factory' inspired feast was a winner... this is what I love about him, the tiny details that look like works of art.

A few years ago I watched his Perfect Christmas Dinner (because Richard E. Grant was on it and I have a weird thing about him...but we'll say no more about that) I was blown away and jealous of the diners, its looked like they'd just stepped into Narnia!

So, the new series started with a 60's theme, with Mr Blumenthal living out his Willy Wonka fantasy, for me the best bit was the mushroom soup, he created a bowl of floating toadstools, complete with woodland aroma, dry ice and voice altering inhalers (i NEED that gas!!)


and this leads me to this weeks FOLKSY FRIDAY theme.... Toadstools :)


again I hope you like my personal choices and do let me know which is your favourite, thanks
