What's For Dinner #96 - the Which Marketing Commercial Month Is It? Edition - August 2023

Yup. Loathe it. It’s baby food to me. Can only have it as a very savory soup or pie.

No pictures, I forgot! Leftover rotisserie chicken with home grown tomatoes and local lettuce on Dave multigrain bread with a little New-bridge Pub dressing. Perfect summer dinner,

Epitome of a summer meal. Beautiful evening at Martine’s River House in New Hope, PA. Two whole days off in a row without work or lectures felt like a vacation and we made the most of it. I enjoyed bruschetta topped with crabmeat and BF had a salad with grilled chicken. Bombay Sapphire Martini for me, beer for him. Views of the river are spectacular, as was the weather.

Abendbrot again: the last of that scrumptious sourdough from the FM, San Daniele prosciutto, fennel salami, 3-milk cheese, the last of the white anchovies (all MINE :smiling_imp:), marinated zukes, a caprese with fior di latte mozzarella & not-so-great Italian tomatoes from the Italian market, and arugula with lemon dressing, parm & pink shrimp – a salad I had ages ago at an Italian place in my hometown. So simple, yet such a perfect combo. Positively stuffed now & ready to chill.

Burger craving hit hard today.
Semi-smashed cheese burger glazed with bbq sauce/grilled bbq onions/kosher dills and mayo on a toasted sesame bun with a side of crispy(frozen) fries and a squirt of catsup. Hit the spot bigly .

Deck herbs are going crazy.
Minced some rosemary, thyme, and oregano with garlic, and mixed with s/p and olive oil, and spread it under the skin and on top of a mongo-sized Frankenchicken breast. Roasted at 400° until done, basting twice.

Green beans and leftover rice pilaf alongside.

And a silly pic of the new kid, Murphy.

Grilled veggie burgers. I grilled them up before B came home and thought to myself, “oh boy, he’s not gonna be excited by dinner/hockey pucks.”

But I had gone to our local farm down the street and stocked up on beautiful sourdough bread, good early-ish (for Boston) tomatoes, collard greens (thanks to @ChristinaM for the idea of raw shredded collard salad a couple of years ago, which I love). I thawed out garlic scape pesto and pulled together a semblance of dinner. Good beer helped the cause tonight.

It doesn’t matter how big the sofa is, if you are a cat it is never big enough :slight_smile: How is Murphy getting along with Alfie?

It’s Murphy and Finnegan. Alfie was the cow cat I lost earlier this year. As for the two orange boys, they are doing well. Finn still hisses at Murph if he gets startled by him, but they have been eating next to each other for over a week with no issues, and while they might never be cuddle-buddies the way Alfie and Finny were, we had this VERY calm close encounter yesterday evening.

What kitty is doing is actually a scientific movement. I can’t explain it all but it has to do with measuring gait, upstairs and downstairs.
