Recipe of the Month – Joan Crawford’s Steak with Roquefort Sauce

The recipe of the month is up.  I was thinking about what I would like to eat on Valentine’s Night.  I will treat myself to a nice juicy steak prepared Joanie style with a good bottle of wine.  I might watch Pillow Talk.   I love the scene with Doris’s heated blanket lead trailing along behind her as Rock scoops her out of bed, surely the sign of the true spinster…

I’m running a competition this month over at the Vincentennial Cookblog.  All you need to do is click here and let me know your favourite thing to eat for brunch.  The names of everyone who makes a comment will be put into a hat for the prize of a jar of “rare as hens’ teeth” Patum Peperium Gentleman’s Relish.  Good luck my dears.

Am having a day off work today to write.  Having a wonderful time.  Just had Haggis, Neeps and Tatties for my lunch.  Yum, yum, yum.

  3. I love Pillow Talk and have a copy of it on DVD. I think it’s time for a re-watch.

    The Steak with Roquefort Sauce sounds scrumptious.

    1. For some reason I thought I didn’t “like” Doris Day – too “girl next door” and then I saw this on a plane and laughed so loud at various points I no doubt kept a few people awake. She is ACE and I must get some more films with her in. I just love her spinster lifestyle, drinking tomato juice at her breakfast bar and listening to Rock on the party line…
