    Oh my, Michael!
    I don't have to wonder what's for supper tonight. Goat cheese is a staple in my kitchen. Whata fantastic and creative dish. Of course you get 5 but wish it was more.
    Thank you for posting.

    Oh my gosh, these potatoes sound heavenly. And I just harvested some Yukon Gold potatoes from my garden. I'll have to purchase some goat cheese so I can try these out. My son will be in heaven! TFS!

    I love your choice of the Yukon Gold here - how buttery and pretty. I think this would all be just the perfect twice baked potato...tangy, creamy, luscious, beautiful...and the perfect comfort side to your Braised Lamb Chops.

    Ahem...may I be invited for dinner? I'll bring the wine. And any dessert you care for. ;)

    Great offering as usual, Michael dear - thank you so much...
