Cupcakes are fun to make and fun to look at, but if you are in the midst of some serious birthday celebrating you need some Real Food. I know that some people (i.e. men) consider quiche to be a frou-frou girlyfood, but a good quiche is hearty, filling, and the perfect accompaniment to a glass or four of wine. So I made two quiches (one traditional quiche lorraine, and one with broccoli an blue cheese) and an upside down tomato tart.
I usually try to snap a pic of the food I make before it all gets eaten, but in this case the quiches went so fast that I only managed a few quick shots. The last piece of quiche lorraine got swiped by a hungry two-year-old. She seemed to enjoy it, so good for her.
