omg it all looks fantastic! that salad… that “baklava”!!
Lots of good eats!
Lucky birthday boy!
Is it oyster on the first photo? Love the grilled meat and veggies.
What a feast! Loved that beet dish!
Sorry about that, hopefully those places will be replaced and not just left being empty.
Holy MOLY that all looks amazing!
A very happy birthday to your DH!
Aha! I couldn’t remember who had recommended them- yeah, these are kind of The Ultimate Chip. Amazing!!
Yes, I mentioned them in the Trader Joe’s thread below. I’m glad you enjoyed them! They go great with guacamole.
No, unfortunately in this city they just build humongous ugly condos for techies to move into.
You better be careful. Your cravings are getting close to mine. Soon, you’ll be eating pickled okra and ice cream.
Tonight we are having beef pulao with chutney. I’ve had very poorly cut T-Bone steaks sitting in the freezer forever and didn’t know what else to do with them. (It’s like someone purposely cut them to have three different thicknesses in the same steak.) Kind of sad, but at least it tasted good.
Have y’all ever tried sesame blues? Ah-maz-ing!!
It’s not only that. The era of Mom and Pop stores has basically ended. It’s hard to compete against the giants. And if the children have other professions, the store closes when the parents have had enough.
Frankly I find this horrifying, depressing and ruinous … it takes my breath away ( melodramatic but true)
I am in complete agreement. But what can we do? If a store closes, it closes.
Bought one for my nina….1 ++mil stupid on my part…but anything for my kids!!! At least they are putting to good use for the 6 figure education I paid for!!!
About to go into the oven for tomorrow…braise of short ribs with red wine, celery, green pepper, carrots, onion, garlic, onion powder, garlic powder, thyme, rosemary, black pepper, EVOO.
Today is our anniversary so we ordered takeout from Don Pepe ll Seafood restaurant. We ordered twin stuffed lobsters with crabmeat, shrimp, and scallops, avocado stuffed with the same seafood, and antipasti. There were also some excellent crispy homemade chips that I didn’t take a picture of. Our friend had gifted us with a 2014 Winsdor Vineyards Napa red blend with a customized label made for them. They own a couple of horses if you are wondering about the meaning of the customized label.
WOW…love the selection of food…
And of course Happy Anniversary!!! Enjoy the evening!
