memorable morsels

Off the top of my head – favorite food moments from three years in Iowa City. A foodie yearbook page, if you will. Our friends are even more fantastic than the food they served.

Michelle’s cedar plank salmon and rosemary cheesecake (pictured at left) … indescribable. Good thing I’m not a food writer, because I couldn’t do them justice.

“Iron Chef” gatherings hosted by Emily. Squash, nuts, berries. And prizes for most creative, best presentation, and tastiest dishes!

Frequent family dinners, with countless desserts and lots of good conversation.

Cooking bibimbap with Jung Ok at Paula’s. Very spicy red stuff.

Bookish brunches and many, many fellowship meals at Lisa’s house. Coffee, casseroles, cookies. The door is always open there … just walk right in!

Darby’s scones, up on the third floor. She doesn’t live there anymore, but she still makes good things to eat.

Trying Thai recipes with Melissa – lettuce wraps and peanut-y noodles.

Orpah and Nate’s very cheesy pizza. Exploding beer and salsa!
