who needs donna hay when we have Bron taking such gloriously hay-ish photos, huh?!

Your's look so good, I don't think they can be topped! Great theme choice, there are so many things you can do with bruschetta/crostini. (And I love the use of the Pirates quote :) )

You blow my mind - I would be so happy with any one of them.
Amuse-Bouche yes it would but these pictures do a real good job on my mind also.
Thank you so very much.

Yummy, it's a pity that you are so far away from Germany otherwise I would have come over and take a bite :-) Regards from the realy hot Germany Katja

Great idea Bron! Your bruschetta look divine. So clearly fresh, in my face! I hope I will have time to make something ;-)

Hi Bron, thank you so much for the extraordinarily kind comment you have left on my blog today. And after checking your own blog I must admit - I am absolutely hooked. I am going to enclose it to my list. Your photography is spectacular. Congrulations ! I will take my time soon to read as many of your posts as possible. Until soon ! angelika from vienna

This looks like it will be good. I'll give it a try.

peabody — Friday 21st July 2006 11:12 am

Wow... this looks great! Can I play? :)

Curious — Friday 21st July 2006 5:32 pm

Your photos are so great - they make even bread and tomatoes look wonderful! And I so rarely like crostini. But I will try to come up with something for this.

COUNT. ME. IN.

Count me in!!!

I'm so exited that you're hosting. I've never participated in HHDD #4 so this will be my first one.

I hope I can get my hands on a copy of that Donna Hay magazine ... we're always several issues behind here.

Can't wait!

Ivonne — Saturday 22nd July 2006 3:18 am

Everything you make looks so good! Love your photos!

Catherine — Saturday 22nd July 2006 7:45 pm

Oh Sam, I'm not sure about that, thank you so much!

Hehe Natalia, gotta love the pirates! Thank you for your kind words!

You blow my mind too Tanna! ;-)

Hallo Katja, ja, ich hoffe, daß es für Sie heute ein bißchen kühler!

I do hope you will find time too Bea, I'd love to see your interpretation for bruschetta.

Thank you so much Angelika! You're too kind.
Please give your Gino boy a HUGE hug from me, ok? ;-)

Can't wait to see what you come up with too Peabody!

Of course you can play Curious! The more the merrier!!

Fantastic Ivonne, I can't wait!
I'm really excited to be hosting too!! Weehee!

Thank you so much Catherine, you're a sweety!


Thanks ever so much everyone, really enjoy getting your comments!!

bron — Saturday 22nd July 2006 10:36 pm

Oh, yes, I really enjoy comments also.
Thanks so much for the dressing suggestion - maybe there is hope for me I was thinking fish sauce also!

Tanna — Sunday 23rd July 2006 1:20 am

Bron, these photos make my mouth water. We had bruschetta at a local restaurant last week for our anniversary and they could certainly take a lesson from you! And Tanna, I think you should get busy and participate in this challenge!!

SueVancil — Sunday 23rd July 2006 6:22 am

Great work with the photography :)

Hi Bron,

Have to agree with everyone on the quality of your photos. Any info you care to share on your camera/lens lighting setup ? These look unbelievably good.

Hi Bron

I´m being really thick, but I can´t e-mail you my details because I don´t understand your address. that little dot and the remove, they throw me. Could you perhaps email me, so I can have your address?

Ximena — Tuesday 25th July 2006 11:37 pm

OMG, what beautiful photos! I am really going to try and take part (although my track record in that department has been pretty poor lately...!) Great theme!

Jeanne — Wednesday 26th July 2006 5:45 am

hi bron, what BEAUTIFUL pictures of bruschetta; i'm totally blown away! also, that couture cupcake picture has got to be one of my favourite d.h.covers in recent memory...what clever use of ribbon!

J — Friday 28th July 2006 2:53 am

Beautiful Bron!! I want some...

Bruno — Friday 28th July 2006 4:53 am

Definately got to learn how to photography like that. One of the few edble photos that I have seen. I feel hypnotised.
Really amazing!

Josh — Sunday 30th July 2006 1:35 pm

My God your photos are gorgeous! That chili feta and pancetta bruschetta is calling out to me.

Alice Q. Foodie — Sunday 30th July 2006 2:16 pm

[...] I first came across the idea to toast sponge cake in Rick Stein’s Food Heroes Book, where he serves a large wedge of toasted sponge with a gorgeous blackcurrant fool. The idea really appealed to me and influenced me into trying other ways to serve the toasted sponge like here as a sweet sort of bruschetta for Hay Hay it’s Donna Day Round #4! - Brilliant Bruschetta [...]

[...] Not only am I late in getting this post done… it’s also incomplete. Bron Marshall is hosting Hay, Hay it’s Donna Hay Day…, where the challenge was to create two different bruschetta recipes and get them posted by the weekend. Well, it’s now Monday, and I’ve only got the one recipe… and rather than risk being even later, I’ll go ahead and post this little creation, inspired by the big bag of fava beans in last week’s CSA basket. To round out the butteriness of the beans, I wanted to add some zip… and Greek Olives and Anchovy seemed like an interesting choice. Simple and delicious, and I think quite worthy of the Donna Hay banner. Fava, Olive and Anchovy Bruschetta 3 parts fava beans 2 part green olives, pitted 1 part white anchovies Baguette slices, cut on the bias Olive oil [...]

[...] Luckily I don’t have to, because that’s your job! I’m not sure if you are all up on the “regular routine” of the Hay Hay it’s Donna Day Event, but normally the person who hosts the event was the winner of the previous round. However, I am the first ever exception to this rule, as I was not the winner of round #3. I simply stepped up to the plate, when Round #3 unfortunately dragged on, eventually concluding without a roundup or vote. [...]
