MMmmmmmm….so good!!! I bought too many peas this weekend and remembered your post.

My kids and I were fighting over the last bits of pesto and I am already planning to buy too many peas again soon

Thanks for sharing this, Ellise — it looks delicious! And I’d been looking for a good summer recipe to serve at cocktail parties. This looks perfect for the season. And congrats on your cookbook, too! You must let me know the details…and how I can help! Can’t wait to see it and cook from it. xxx

Sounds De-vine. Glad you were able to track down the source to give credit. I figure food is a form of art and there are really very little original ideas, most are just a conglomeration of what we’ve seen and tasted all whirrled up in our brains. Thanks for the yummy idea and recipe. Now I conjure up the bumper sticker “Visualize whirrled peas”

This looks so delicious Ellise. Can’t wait to make it! The whole peaness thing reminds me of something very funny that happened at Food Arts years ago but I’ll save that story for when I see you. xxx

Dianne,

I even took a Writing Salon class from you about seven years ago. It’s an even smaller world than previously suspected.

It’s not my birthday but this is a nice surprise for me too. Thanks for the link.

I have now investigated the hilarious Michael Procopio, who, it turns out, lives near me. Small world.

But let’s get back to you. You have done a fine job of passing on credit for who and what inspired you. That is sufficient and certainly more than what many bloggers post.

Good luck with your cookbook, Ellise.

Well, if this isn’t just the nicest birthday to wake up to. ..

Thank you. I don’t think I’ve ever been the subject of anyone’s blog post before, so I was a little (happily) stunned when I woke up this morning to find this.

Though I might have whipped up the peaness spread in my head, I’m sure that I, too was inspired by others. Inspiration is have the fun of cooking.

The whole #peaness thing was passed on to me by Sean Timberlake and Anita & Cameron Crotty, who happen to keep two of my (other) favorite food blogs:

Thank you so much for my birthday present!

Food and recipes are something that bring almost all of us together. I count myself lucky to have found your blog and met you thanks to our shared love of food and recipes (and let’s not even get started on ruled notebooks). So… Thank you for being one of my inspirations in the kitchen. Now, please excuse me. I need to update my grocery list so I can make some version of this dish this weekend.
