Went to the truffle festival today, and I have a question.
 
Can 'truffle' really be a verb? Every food we tasted had been 'truffled' according the labels, fliers etc. Truffled cheese, truffled eggs, truffled salt. 'with truffles' would mean truffles in it, or added to it, but how is something "truffled" exactly, do you suppose?
 
Run over by elephants? Nope, that is trampled.
Confused by it all? Nope, that is baffled.
Flustered... ruffled.
Snatched up in a sale....snaffled.
 
The other truly hilarious part of the day was when we arrived, and we had to get in the 'jump the queue' queue. The VERY VERY LONG queue. That was, sadly, moving much much slower than the 'we didn't pre-pay for our tickets' queue. Not likely to prepay for tix again.

The mushroom risotto arancini was amazing though. And we had some nice bubbly white wines. And incredible madelines. yummmmm.
