I've never been a fan of MS, esp. her cooking. When she first
published _Entertaining_ years and years ago, my SIL gave me a copy
and I tried maybe a dozen recipes before I decided the woman is long
on appearance and short on edibility. More than one dish had me
scratching my head wondering if she'd actually *tried* the recipe or
just thought it *read* well and would look pretty. One that I recall -
and, mind you, I was a fairly inexperienced cook at the time - was an
appetizer of cherry tomatoes with the pulp scooped out and replaced
with a cream cheese mixture, topped with red or black caviar. Tasted
awful and, after about 15 mins., looked worse, as the caviar bled into
the cream cheese. My then-four-year-old daughter said they looked like
"monster eyeballs."
