Groom made a comment tonight.
“Have you noticed that you drink wine from France and I drink Scotch from Scotland. You’re cooking a French recipe with Italian olive oil in a Moroccan tagine and we’re watching a BBC TV series. Ain’t life grand?”
He’s right.
And what a meal it was.
Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic, Give or Take
