That’s great news! Even though I am sure you want to jump back into your usual routine make sure you don’t overdo it.

I like Bombay Sapphire gin and Fever Tree tonic or Fevertree Elderflower tonic. My grocery stores are now sometimes out of stock on the Elderflower, so I try to stock up when they have it.

Question… I have some food pics from my recent trip to Montreal , should I post here or start a “Quebec trip report”? I don’t want to deprive my adoring fans of any of my adventures.

If you do a trip report, other folks searching for Montreal recs will be able to benefit from it.

Hot town, summer in the city Montreal edition.
First dinner was at Foxy. Their specialty is cooking pretty much everything in the wood fire oven so everything is touched by fire.
sorry about the vague descriptions, I should really write things down, but I’m too lazy
Started with a delicious Negroni- so refresh
" 3 layers dip" brandade/herbs/homemade pita
“Nordic shrimp” baby shrimp just barley cooked in the oven/cucumber/dill/lemon So light and refreshing.
A glass of delicious orange wine from Lisbon.
Crispy, crispy skin arctic char/new potatoes/sorrel sauce. Perfectly cooked and the crispiest skin ever.
Dessert was chocolate/zucchini layer cake with brown butter and salted caramel

I’d do the in-
depth report on the Quebec regional board and add a link to it here. Or link to your specific dinners that are posted here in your trip report.

First tomatoes of the season for us, it has been so rainy in NE, we weren’t sure we would ever see any. The only upside was the lettuce season was extended.
BLTs on the menu tonight, bacon done in the toaster oven, not as crispy as it looks, but on the crispy side.
Kitchen reno has started, here is our set up, with 2 grills outdoors and 1 hot pot for coffee/tea making.

Shaved ice with condensed sweet milk, adzuki beans, mochi, flan, lychees, and almond tofu.
The most delicious and bestest dinner on a hot July summer.

Shrimp and potato stewed with mint, cilantro, tamarind, and chiles. We also had basmati rice and roasted green beans. Some leftovers for tomorrow too, although I may add a dish to round things out.

Made some Mussels in a white wine sauce with extra dipping bread of course. And some Spicy Corn Ribs to go with it.
Also made some garlic confit for a dinner party this week, but I made enough for every other night this week as well hahah.
