July 5, 2013 Brunch - Lobster scrambled eggs, Lunch - Stdard Diner Dinner – Pizza and Polish Dog at Costco

This was a day of extremes from great heights to the very lowest common denominator.
We started out with a brunch of scrambled eggs made with 4 eggs and the PPI Lobster American (Homard À L’ Américaine) and about 2 Tbsp. of cottage cheese and 2 tsp. of tarragon and 1 green onion cooked in 1 Tbsp. of butter.  When the eggs were nearly finished cooking, Suzette and I looked at each other without speaking and agreed instantly that we needed champagne, so we opened a bottle of Gruet Blanc de Noir and Suzette toasted a fresh bolillo.  We fetched an open bottle of Smucker’s blueberry preserves from the fridge and had a lovely brunch on the patio. 

At noon I went to lunch at Standard Diner with Ricardo.  He ordered fish and chips and I ordered the meatloaf sandwich with a couscous salad that had a mixture of corn kernals, cilantro, two kinds of Israeli couscous and quinoa.  We each drank a bottle of Negra Modelo.  I loved the meatloaf sandwich with its slab of bacon wrapped meatloaf and large slices of ripe tomato.


 
I finished my meal with a small 6 z. jar of chocolate mousse laid on about ½ inch of oreo cookie crumbs and garnished with a swirl of whipped cream ($3.00).   

After work, we went to Costco for dinner and to buy a few things, such as bottle of rum (Bacardi gold 1.75 liter for $16.99 and a 1.75 liter bottle of Canadian Whiskey for $12.99) and for Willy’s party 12 large ripe tomatoes and a package of fresh Mozzarella packed in water, because Suzette wanted to make a Caprese Salad and 2 quarts of Heavy Cream for the peach and mango ice cream and portabella mushrooms for the lasagna and three jars of Cervantes Green Chili Sauce and a seedless watermelon ($4.99) to use to make a fruit salad.

After we shopped we were ready to eat.  Suzette ordered a piece of pizza and I ordered a Polish Dog.  If you love food, you can eat lobster for breakfast and hot dog or pizza for dinner and be happy after both meals.
When we got home around 8:00 p.m. we made the green tomatillo sauce for the enchiladas and I cut up three mangos and about seven peaches and we refrigerated them.

Bon Appetit
