This is the big one, 007...
September 23, 2012 2:16 PM Subscribe
I'm holding a '007 Days of James Bond' charity fund-raiser marathon, starting this coming Sunday - all of official movies from 'Dr. No' to 'Quantum of Solace' plus a few more.
So I'm looking for food/drink ideas we can put together - either 'sensible' stuff connected with the movie (sushi during 'You Only Live Twice'), silly generic ideas (' Prawn Connery') or anything you can suggest...
Many thanks in advance!
James Bundt cake
Calamari (for octopussy)
non alcoholic (?) Martinis- shaken, not stirred of course
The Pie who loved me
License to chill (this could be a whole section of cold foods!)

From Russia with Love is always a fun one - you can do Moscow Mules (ginger beer, vodka, lime) and blinis with sour cream and (fake) caviar.

Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Lillet blanc. Shake it very well until it's ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel.
