If I ever start up a catering company, these dear little quiches are going to be one of the first items to appear on the menu; they're wonderful. I didn't really want to change the recipe, but in the end I couldn't resist adding a little bit of fresh dill, which worked very well. Mr B, who didn't see them being made, commented on their creamy taste. And they don't just taste good; these quiches look so pretty too. Thank you bluemoon, for posting such a super recipe.

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
