Anchovies: you love 'em or you hate 'em, right? I love them, especially when they are the fat,
olive oil-packed ones from Italy or Spain. If you love anchovies and want a deliciously different appetizer to serve at
your Super Bowl party this weekend, try this twist on the "crostini/brushchetta" theme. It's easy, too:
Anchoiade Chez Gilbert
- 2 cans (each 2 ounces; 57 grams) flat anchovy fillets in oil, drained, oil reserved
- 16 thin slices from a long, narrow sweet) French baguette
- 2½ tsps. red wine vinegar
- 4 garlic cloves, coursely chopped
- 3 tbsps chopped parsley

Avocados are da bomb. I love them. I grew up in Hawaii where they were abundant. I have
childhood memories of halving them and eating them sprinkled with sugar (don't knock it till you try it), drizzled with
balsamic vinegar, or mashed onto buttered toast.
