Porcelain Spoons

Spoons. Porcelain spoons. These are the spoons that seem to have been a major theme in my life for the past 3 days. The 1st encounter was with the spoons that held delicious shrimp ceviche with a liberal dousing of fish sauce. It was tasty, a little pungent but that's what it was. Perhaps it's the summery season returning, that's bringing back this seeming trend of finger food. Tapas... I wonder when I'll start sampling those again.

The second sighting was while I perused the LCBO's Early Summer 2010 issue of Food & Drink. Little spoons filled with bite-sized morsels of food, looking like it's got flavour explosion. I'm getting hungry... long slender toothpicks also skewer other delectables in this issue's pages.

My hunt for some spoons at home led me to find my gigantic spoon rest. It's the size of my palm. If only they served morsels in spoons like these! (Spoon featured in picture.)
