so for my party, i think the final menu will be: curry, hamburg, katsu sandwiches, miso soup, coconut madeleines, tiramisu, green tea yogurt cheesecake, cake, bakery-style vanilla cupcakes with pink buttercream, iced cookies, and bubble thai iced tea :) i hope this'll be enough food. i still wanna add other desserts of novel flavors though - kurogoma, marron, strawberry, mango, lychee, redbean. maybe i'll add a cup'd dessert - mousse or panna cotta...hmm...think think think...
for thanksgiving, i have 2 ideas in mind for desserts, featuring the most appropriate thanksgiving dessert ingredients - pumpkin & cranberries. i've never had pumpkin anything & i only like cranberries when it's a juice mix'd with pineapple or when it's dried & in my tarragon chicken salad...
...hmmm...is it bad to bake/cook something for others to enjoy if i won't even try or enjoy? ....errrrr....i think it's alright! same goes for yogurt, i don't like it, but i plan on making a yogurt cheesecake for the Hello Kitty party...=P
so, back to the pumpkin & cranberries. for the pumpkin, i found this REALLY cool recipe in one of the 4 books my brother just bought me from Hong Kong - a custard baked inside a pumpkin with marshmallows toast'd on top. the custard is simple - just water, eggs, milk & sugar. but i think i'm gonna add some of the pumpkin flesh to it :) as for the cranberries, i start'd with a cranberry cheesecake to a cranberry red or white wine jelly to a cranberry souffle cheesecake (attempt #4) - just a vanilla cheesecake with cranberries on the bottom.
exciting!!! hope all goes well. :)
