Dinner suggestions please

[bushwacker bob]

I think this dinner should include a proper pudding considering Kaths quote, how about some egg custard with those free range eggs :-D

Morels? Oh yes!
I've found them all over my garden (don't know where they've come from but I sure as hell am NOT gonna complain).
Been cropping them for a couple of weeks. Just make sure you remove the slugs/woodlice unless you want even more protein.
Despite what it says in the books, Morels are pretty easy to tell apart from the false morel. True morels have a quite uniform structure whereas false morels are more like an amorphous blob with indentations.
True morel:

It may be a be late for your special dinner......But dont forget the presentation. A special meal should be a feast for all the senses, and a little effort is always nice. How about using some of the early spring blossoms like rose petals...a carpet of pink! The leaves of bulb plants such as daff's can be cut and laid out to act as table places. Theres still plenty of cones around that can add an extra dimension to any place setting (but warm the beasties out first) If you really want to go for it, what about carving a loving spoon? or a double ended spoon? The Ladies love that kind of thing...so I've been told!

The progress of my love spoon is very slow. I don't think the tree the wood comes from has even been planted yet! I think he's planning it for our golden wedding anniversary ...

As for the presentation, lovely ideas, but I'll be most impressed if I don't end up in hospital with food poisoning! ):
