Would you enjoy this?

Once again my insomnia has left me planning a meal that'll never happen.

I love cooking. I love dinner parties. I have no friends. Our extended family hate fancy food.

I planned a 12 course meal, please let me know what you think. The theme? Citrus.

1. Bruscetta with creme fraiche, smoked salmon, and faux caviar made of lemon and agar agar.

Eaten during cocktail hour with assorted wines and spirits. Specialty drink: raspberry lemonade with sake

2. Chili lime cucumber skewers

3. Lemon bacon navy bean soup. Blended and sivved until smooth and luxurious

4. Cheese ravioli drizzled with lemon infused olive oil and fresh basil chiffonade

5. Garden salad wrapped in either cucumber or avocado, drizzled with a lemon pepper vinegarette

6. Breaded sole over a lime cole slaw

7. Chicken meatballs in an orange glaze, over rough mashed root vegetables and surrounded by dots of garlic whipped cream and watercress.

8. Mixed citrus sorbet

9. Prime rib/ribeye crusted in a rosemary and lemon zest blend... over thickened au just, with asparagus and surrounded with horseradish sauce

10. Cheese course with cheddar, sheep brie, and goat cheese with crackers, lemon marinated olives, and honey comb with candied lemon. Assorted crackers.

11. Vanilla cream tart with raspberries filled with lemon curd and meringue kisses. Plate decorated with raspberry dust and candied peel.

12. Coffee, Haldi Doodh (golden milk), or peppermint tea with white chocolate filled with candied peel and candied ginger.
