I cannot wait to taste one that tastes how everyone says they should. What did you think of the movie? I assume you saw it Friday? I haven't yet - but would love to hear your opinion.<br />:)<br />ValerieA Canadian Foodiehttp://www.acanadianfoodie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567715590164266982.post-87927982844161379332010-08-17T07:36:39.600-07:002010-08-17T07:36:39.600-07:00Too gorgeous!

I've made similar orange salads with Kalamata olives and vinaigrettes, but I'm intrigued with the anchovy in it. I like anchovies and I'm sure I would not leave it out, even though it says optional. You've done a gorgeous job of plating too.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.com
