Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date! Here is my Nutcracker Ornament ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in acrylic marker.
For the dinner date, I made this eggplant pesto salad based on this Jamie Oliver recipe that I saw on TV.
It uses mint, pistachios and feta cheese to dress the eggplant salad and is quite good, has a refreshing taste, is how I would describe it. I have a mortar and pestle which comes in handy for this recipe. I had bought it long ago because Jamie Oliver always used one and I thought it might be good to have.



That salad looks fabulous!
