November 26, 2018 A PPI Day  Lunch – PPI Sweet Potato, Brussels Sprouts, and Cabbage with Sautéed Salmon.  Dinner Party – Texas Chili, Cornbread, Ratatouille and Couscous

Today I worked on the water case until 12:30 and then heated a container of PPI Sweet Potatoes, Brussels Sprouts, and Cabbage with a piece of Sautéed Salmon plus a few bites of chocolate pecan pie. Then I thawed out a 1 lb. piece of salmon.

I then drove to the Law School to research the law for an hour. I called Luke to see if artichokes, Salmon, and Ratatouille would be agreeable for dinner.

I was back home by 5:00 and Suzette arrived at the same time.  I filled the steamer with hot water and boiled the four artichokes I bought last Saturday.  Suzette went to the garden and picked a T. of fresh dill.  I put it into a bowl and added mayonnaise and sweet lime juice to make a dill dipping sauce for the artichokes.




I brought in the Texas Chili and heated it and slowly heated the Ratatouille.  Everything was hot by the time Luke, Autumn, and Debbie arrived.  Soon Willy arrived. Suzette ate Texas Chili and cornbread before they arrived and when they arrived we gathered around the table by the fireplace.  I served the warm artichokes and sauce and used 1½ cups of artichoke cooking liquid to make 1 cup of Couscous.

Suzette then plated bowls of Couscous and Ratatouille for Luke, Autumn, and Debbie.  Willy served himself a bowl of Texas Chili and we heated the cornbread and served it with butter and honey.


After a bit we served desserts buffet style, chocolate pecan pie, pumpkin pie, ice cream, and whipped cream and watched Adaptation, when Willy left.

After the movie at 9:00 we said goodbye to Autumn, Debbie, and Luke and went to bed.  The coldness in the house due to lack of heat throws a pall over entertaining and everything we do except lie in bed.

Bon Appetit
