I used to get sooo stressed out about last-minute dinner parties. You know, the ones where your sister calls like a hour before, and all of a sudden you have a group of people coming over (midweek) for dinner?! Well, over the years I've learned that life happens and these impromptu dinner parties are bound to crop up now and again. And planning for these eventualities is something I've actually come to embrace!

I'm not a great lover of seafood, but add it to pasta, and I'm front of the queue! For Easter this year, I decided to turn up the volume on my usual seafood linguine recipe with a Bloody Mary inspired sauce , which is great for entertaining and dinner parties over this weekend!

If you din't notice, we're brunching this week ;) And nothing screams winter brunch better than some comfort food, right?! Hence this Panettone chocolate and marmelade tart number. Apart from being totally decadent and delicious, is extremely easy and FUN to make!

Following on from yesterday's Cheese Fondue Party post , here's my go-to French Savoyard Cheese Fondue recipe.  Warning: Delicious and very addictive!! ;)
