In fourth grade, we had to do a report on our family heritage, which included drawing a map of the country. I could choose between England and Ireland.

I think I ended up choosing Ireland because it seemed easier to draw.

I'm sure that this would only take HALF a day, DR Vixmom:

I've been to two count 'em Two weddings where at the cocktail hour they had a potato bar...

they had a "bar tender" who would serve you a scoop or two of the mashed of your choice...I think they had Yukon Gold, Idaho and sweet potato... and then you dressed it yourself they had brown gravy, brown sugar, crushed nuts, green onions, various shredded cheeses, bacon, of course bacon, sour cream, butter

ChasSmith · « **Reply #140 on:** June 04, 2014, 07:44:02 PM »

And they were carb-free potatoes! -- right?

singdaw · « **Reply #141 on:** June 04, 2014, 07:46:13 PM »

And the bride and groom put a fist of potatoes in each other's mouths?

I was thinking about possibly making this.....

This traditional recipe for Hungarian Chocolate Mousse Cake - Sutemeny Rigo Jancsi - has a delightful history.

Rigo Jancsi was a famous Hungarian gypsy violinist. In 1896 while in Paris, Jancsi played for Prince Josef and Princess Klara. Fascinated by his swarthy good looks, she fell in love. Klara left her husband and children to follow Jancsi who divorced his wife. The affair didn't last but the cake Rigo created with a confectioner in Klara's honor did - Sutemeny Rigo Jancsi. It remains a favorite Hungarian sweet.

Prep Time: 45 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
