I was
flipping through the pages of Côte Est Magazine last
night and dreaming I was on a ski trip holiday ensconced somewhere in a cozy
chalet (dressed like Carrie Bradshaw with the Russian, no less) lounging near a
crackling fire after a full day on the slopes.
Though a
snowy mountain escape is a far cry from where we will be celebrating in sunny
So Cal this Christmas, I did find this simple recipe I plan to make, a reminder
of many ski trips and holidays past…
...smoked salmon with cream cheese and chives on a rustic baguette.
Isn’t it interesting the memory associations we have? For me, an image of smoked salmon (smoked salmon) sent me traveling to times and places and people I haven’t visited in ages…sleigh riding in the snow-covered mountains of my childhood and big groups of us piling into our vehicles to go to the local lifts...some idyllic romantic escapes surfaced too, nights in a hot tub with views of the stars in the crisp night sky and the twinkling lights of the village below us…good times.
Not in the cards for me this year though — smoked salmon and a trip down memory lane will have to do.
