I’m sorry. Hoping for the best possible outcome.

I brought some of the beef my FIL gifted us over to a friend earlier this week to help her ends meet, and she cooked a pot roast and brought it over tonight for joint dinner. I made a cheese plate, green salad, rice, and heated up some olive fougasse. The kids had TJ’s mint chip ice cream with hot fudge. Plenty of red wine. Maybe too much. What a week! Just one more week until school starts for us.

Pan-roasted chicken thighs with garden veg: scallion-potato gratin, roasted green beans, cukes in vinaigrette, herbed green- sauce.
If anyone needs dessert (doubtful), there’s a freshly baked blackberry tart.

My kind of meal. So nice to see the use of actual carrots instead of the “baby carrots” that are really just old carrots whittled down.

I watch a lot of food reviews on YouTube and some buffets just steam them and try to pass them off as a side dish. I wouldn’t trust that buffet.

Oh, my! This was delicious and just what I hoped for. Fruit was perfection. Cottage cheese and fruit “salad”
FYI yesterday when I posted my rendition of Milanese, I also used my rendition of the spelling. I figured it out too late to edit. Now it will live here forever. I realize there are worse things people are dealing with, but…………

I was craving a big salad. Gold Nugget tomatoes, avocado, pickled beets, garbanzos, red onion on a bed of interesting mixed greens from the Crescent City farmers market. Ranch and camboloza dressing. There will be a fig for dessert.
