What's for Dinner #112 - the "Pre-Holiday Crazies" Edition - November 2024

With my knee being better, we did some hoofing around in the hood — mostly for food-related shopping: a country sourdough & a 3-cheese sourdough from the nearby bakery, various cheeses & cold cuts, marinated white beans, and imported chocolate treats from DiBruno’s, cookies for our afternoon coffee, and beer — cuz ya can’t live on food alone :wink:

WFD was therefore an Abendbrot-style affair: a few slices of each loaf,


regular country sourdough


three-cheese sourdough

San Daniele, the last of the city ham, Irish Gubbeen & brie,

a smoked salmon dip/spread I made with the snippets I got at Biedermann’s, as some of them were clearly end pieces, unpleasantly thick, chewy, and overly salty. I chopped the salmon up, added horseradish, lemon juice, Duke’s, brown mustard, sour cream, and capers. Our Sprouts market didn’t have any fresh dill, unfortunately, as that would’ve been a nice finish.

A cup of very good Sprouts tomato soup to warm us up, and a small shrimp cocktail.

It was so much food I totes blanked on getting the beans out. Oh, well. There’s always the next Abendbrot :smiling_face:
