Jim was up late playing the latest PS-3 game so I let him sleep away the morning, took out and fed Zoe (the dog), went to the store and had some organic strawberry yogurt for breakfast.
For lunch I cut up half a roast chicken made the other day and added s&p, 1 celery rib, 2 scallions, 1T dried tarragon, 1/2 c toasted and lightly chopped farm-fresh pecans and mayonnaise to bind. Served it on artisinal wheat French bread with a bunch of green grapes on the side.
Tonight I’m using a cast iron ridged grill pan (too hot to grill outside) to make boneless pork loin “steaks” with John Henry’s Texas BBQ Rub and quartered radicchio now marinating in extra virgin olive oil, s&p. I just took corn bread out of the oven and am using a large can of maple-flavored baked beans the way Mom used to make them, with 1/2 c grated sharp cheddar cheese and 2 slices microwaved, chopped bacon (applewood smoked, from the butcher).
A large load of laundry is about to finish drying, and after I fed Zoe Jim took her out to play with her buddies so I have some time to write.
No more laziness. It’s going to be a busy week so I’ll get to the blog as I can. Cheers! Dee
