nutella french toast sandwiches fits gluttony.

There's a recipe for oysters on the half shell with mignonette sauce. I looked for the mignonette sauce but that didnt follow. I forgot all about the word until I came across it in Near a thousand tables: a history of food. Mignonette is also a ship with a history and consequences to law.
