Did I say *Cresslicious* ? I did, and it was delicious! I followed this exactly even down to the garden cress - which grows by our stream bed early to mid Spring. I thought, what the heck? Ran home, washed the cress thoroughly in cold water (ice cubes added) and was off to boil eggs. Really perfect, and such a delight to eat on a warm Spring day. I had a couple slices of *Whole Foods* country white bread, which was perfect with this. Reminds me to make some more this was so tasty. Made for *Zaar Stars* April 2009

Simple, delicious, wonderful. The proportions were right on target, no mayonnaise surplus in evidence. I used Pepperidge Farm Farmhouse style Hearty White bread, but I think Pepperidge Farm's Thin-Sliced White Bread would have been perfect for this. No extra seasonings were needed due to the abundance of watercress I used. In fact, the only drawback was that I could not obtain either baby mustard cress nor garden cress, but could only get the more mature watercress. It would be worth growing my own sprouts!

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!
