I plan to make a big batch and start taking some for lunch (I've suggested my readers do the same here, http://www.poortastemag.com/).

I'm hoping for another moonlight cinema trip before the end of summer so maybe it will make another appearance there!<BR/><BR/>thanks holler - moonlight cinema is a wonderful place to go to and I am sure I have seen a similar one in a movie recently but my memory is wonky too! I am a latecomer to Dr Who because I was too terrified of the theme music as a child to watch an episode and it was on at dinner time - but luckily E has helped me overcome my fear so I can enjoy the delightful David Tennant as the Doctor. But the daleks are still scary, except on lunchboxes :-)Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-54768286530287639392008-02-04T11:05:00.000+11:002008-02-04T11:05:00.000+11:00What a cool place to go to!

It wouldn't be the wedding planner would it? Maybe not! That is going to drive me crazy now! Anyway the romantic lead is at an outdoor movie and is asked to dance! Someone remember please, before I go loopy!<BR/>Anyway, what I was trying to say, is what a fabulous place to have a picnic and I like your lunch box, although I would go with a picture of David Tennant over a dalek, I always found them terrifying as a child! Oh Boy! I am wittering on, see, old age!Jacqueline Meldrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05748535381400208316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-57430561805546248692008-02-04T11:00:00.000+11:002008-02-04T11:00:00.000+11:00I'm particularly happy that you both enjoyed the m...I'm particularly happy that you both enjoyed the muhammara! I suspect that the taste of pomegranate molasses may vary a bit from brand to brand - my bottle is very sweet and somewhat sour, but I remember sampling a more acrid version at a friend's house. I think this recipe may very well need more sweetener, lemon juice or seasoning depending on the particular molasses you have and, as always, personal taste.<BR/><BR/>We are lucky to have long summer evenings at the Moonlight cinema, aren't we? :-)Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07147906610629741961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-23324651499608813162008-02-03T19:03:00.000+11:002008-02-03T19:03:00.000+11:00What a lovely way to spend an evening.

It's funny because I have been making it for years and called it "roasted red pepper walnut dip" and then I saw it on a cooking show and was enlightened when the host called it Muhammara. It's one of my favorite dips.LisaRenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17033748967210196808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-12668300369877924092008-02-03T14:42:00.000+11:002008-02-03T14:42:00.000+11:00How wonderful to be able to enjoy the flowers, an ...How wonderful to be able to enjoy the flowers, an evening show AND a picnic! Unfortunately, Alaska isn't really a good place for outdoor movies - but picnics and hiking make a great combination. The red pepper dish sounds delish - I'll have to give it a try the next time red peppers are on sale (although pomegranate molasses might be trickier to find).Monika Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08323280644122921851noreply@blogger.com
