I'm gonna make some next week, and see if it's as good.. . .and less expensive!
I ate marinated fresh mozzerella today that was in bite sized ball shaped pieces. Is that a common size or did the caterer bread off chuncks and roll them into balls?
I've seen those in the "olive bar" at a local supermarket, in a mix that includes tomatoes and roasted red peppers. Must be more than one size available "to the trade." The ones I buy are a little bigger than a golf ball. -- -Barb, <www.jamlady.eboard.com> updated 3-13-04. Rec.food.cooking's Preserved Fruit Administrator (I've got the button to prove it!)

the bride came out carrying a plate with a cupcake and a candle - announcing that there was a birthday today (I thought I heard her say "a couple of birthdays)! She gave the cupcake to me and I looked around for the other person(s), then the entire wedding reception party sang Happy Birthday to ME! Oh, my goodness... I almost cried!
That was soooo sweet! I've never been to a wedding reception where they honored anyone other than the bride & groom.
That really is sweet! Happy Birthday to you!!
Thanks - I'm a year older (not sure about wiser). <wink>

How did the paella turn out?
I could have been better. BTW: there was no chorizo in it, it was chicken instead.

They're pretty common. They look really pretty in a salad with cherry tomatoes, as they're about the same size.
Any (big name) grocery store? How could I have missed them? I'll have to look more carefully next time.

I guess so! These were slightly smaller than a quarter.

The Safeway near me carries them - in the specialty cheese section near the deli. (I shop at the Bay Street Safeway).
Thanks! I'll stop by sometime and pick some up. I live & work on the South side of town, so I'm not up there very often. In the mean time, I'll take a closer look at the specialty cheese sections of the larger Safeways near me.
