As I mentioned, there are a couple of late participants. I had to laugh as I started to write them up: Ginger and Elise were reading each other's minds. Also, LoveSicily's terrine now has pictures. Simply Recipes' Eggplant and Red Pepper Terrine
Elise sent me her entry a mere hour after I posted the big wrap-up, so she almost squeaked in. But now she gets this post almost to herself. The layers in her terrine look thick and flavorful in the bottom picture. A big chunk of Brie adds a nice richness to her final dish, which she enrobed in a velvety tomato sauce. Ginger's Vegetable and Cheese Terrine
I'm honored that Ginger, a friend and co-worker (also my manager, as it happens) and a world-class triathlete, decided to participate in this edition of Is My Blog Burning? Her terrine also features roasted eggplant and peppers in a surprising bit of synchronicity, though she adds zucchini and uses the more tangy goat cheese to create a terrine that probably tastes quite different from Elise's. I'm hoping some leftovers find their way into work. (edit: Ginger's pictures are up now, and well worth checking out)
