"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

I know that the Gordon family was never big on "the mold" but the Seekonk Gordons like this one. I first made it in 1973 for my parents' 40th wedding anniversary.
