Golden Brussels Sprouts

Okay, so I wasn’t even going to write about these, because the recipe’s all simple, and it has already been beautifully documented here, but this is what I made tonight, and it might just have been the best thing I’ve ever had. Or almost, I mean I know that’s an odd thing to say about brussels sprouts, and maybe it has something to do with the nice day, and my sunny walk with my mother, and my well behaved children flourishing in swim classes today which continues to ease my maternal guilt. It’s been a nice day. And for dinner we had squash soup and these little beauties, which we all just grabbed by the handful from the bowl until they were gone, a dazed look in our eyes like we were eating caramel popcorn or something else equally addictive. And when the bowl was empty, we were silent, except for Sadie, who just kept saying, I like brussels sprouts over and over. Wow. What an experience. I suggest it. So go look at Heidi’s beautiful recipe and make it, but times it by 20, because it will blow your mind, and you won’t be able to stop.
