Chilled Cream of Kir Royal
"It surprised me a bit that chilled soups appeared as appys on every dinner menu of our recent cruise, but this could not be easier to fix-in-a-flash soup was a bigger surprise than most. From *The Carnival Experience* by Peter Leypold (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines), this "soup" allows you to indulge yourself w/a dessert cocktail both before & after your meal. *Enjoy* !"

I am an American transplanted from Dallas to Iceland by marriage to a native Icelander & I retired to become his "Kitchen Queen". We love to entertain our family & friends, so I have an eclectic collection of recipes. I especially love simple, easy-fix, flexible & make-ahead recipes - BUT also like challenging myself on occasion. I enjoy baking & food photography. I am devoted to the "More is Always Better Principle" & apply it liberally to bacon, butter & garlic. I can have ingredient issues due to availability here in Iceland & my DH is medically diet-restricted from some ingredients as well. Either situation might require me to modify a recipe, but I will do my best to be true to your recipes & fair/honest in my reviews. Mary Pat (aka twissis)
