In years past as the Oscars approached I would start to fret about what to serve at my party. I have a bit of a tradition of making a dish based on or inspired by each of the best picture nominees. Coming up with 5-10 dishes every year is actually harder than it sounds. Some years your are blessed with movies like The Kings Speech (The King's Peach Cobbler) or The Blind Side (Blind Sliders) and the dishes basically make themselves. But some years there are difficult films like The Reader (I made "fReaders" a play on potato fritters) or The Fighter (We finally came up with Punch, which was actually a real hit). What I would have done for ideas from some post on-line to at least give me a hint of an inkling of what to do. So, here is my post for those looking for menu items for this years nominees (I like to call them "Nom-Noms". The dishes, not the movies).
