Remember this one? So good you want to eat it with a spoon? There was nothing moderate about the 80s.
Not the hair.
Not the leg warmers.
Not the sour cream in the spinach dip.
Yesterday I made this classic for my year 12 son, who is very very tired of studying for HSC Trials (overseas translation for my favourite Canadians and Americans: Year 12 'Trial' final exams...the real ones happen in October & November, but Trials also count!).
Just so you don't have to go searching for the recipe, here it is. (Yes, the water chestnuts matter but are not entirely critical!)
Today, let nostalgia be your ally! Your favourite classic perfume, music, food -- that song you love from the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, or 90s -- it can be a fast, easy way to find your Happy.
Enjoy your weekend, everyone! Have some fun...and be fun to live with.
Love Catherine
