I love this dish. It is pretty and receives many "oh's and ah's. Some of them came from Treena Kerr and her husband Graham....better known as "The Galloping Gourmet", of TV and cookbook fame.
Kind of nuts of me to invite them to dinner along with 17 of our other friends...but then he was willing to prepare a great dessert for all of us-in front of us. He made our party just the best ever!
