Where’s the Salt?

I’ve never done a pure links post yet (shame on me), but since link love makes the blogosphere go round … and tomorrow is all about warm happy feelings (if you can get over the way the greeting card industry has ambushed this day and made it their own) here, for your pleasure, is link love:

• Pim’s Pad Thai for beginners. I haven’t tried this yet, but yesterday bought light & dark Pearl River Soy Sauce, which has me in the mood for Asian food!

• Hat tip to Kieran for this link to recipes and chat about pierogis.

• I’ve been a fan of Lobstersquad’s drawings ever since unsuccessfully trying to win one of them in the Menu for Hope draw.
• This gingerbread reminds me of the one we had in Café Idaho before Christmas.
• Do you want pommes frites with that? Waiter rant is a blog by a former New York (I think) waiter, turned writer. Nice to dip into, from time to time.
• The Good Things Café in Durrus: My favourite place to eat in West Cork. I’m linking here, just because I’m starting to get excited about their 2 day Kitchen Miracle programme which I’m going on in March …and because I asked if Carmel would mind including some Lebanese dishes on the course (I promise I wasn’t trying to be a foodie pain in the a$$, she invites participant input) … and her response was “No problem”!
