November 25, 2024 Breakfast -granola with milk, yogurt, and tropical fruit salad, Lunch - Fabada. Dinner - stuffed Acorn Hash

Today day’s food included the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly but delicious.

At around 9:00 I ate a bowl of granola with milk, yogurt, and tropical fruit salad. It was delicious and healthy.

I worked in the morning, walking to the bank to deposit a check and sending a request to Phillips to see if they would auction my Christo.  

Then at 12:30 I heated the remaining Fabada and ate it with two slices of buttered toast baguette and the last of the Calstar 2018 Sonoma Ridge Pinot Noir that was still surprisingly pleasant after sitting corked for several days.

I watched West Ham beat Newcastle  and when it ended around 3:00 read until Suzette came home at 3:45. I then napped until 5:30 while Suzette watched home decorating shows.

At 6:00 Suzette began cooking dinner. She sautéed the leftover acorn squash stuffed with pork sausage and nuts. I went to the garage and found a bottle of Le Ferme’ Julien rose produced by the Family Perrin and bought at Trader Joe’s for $6.99.

It is in the light smooth style of Southern Rhone Roses that we like and definitely worth the money when Bandol roses sell for $20.00.

After dinner we flipped from the Antique Roadshow to Monday Night Football in which the Ravens beat the L.A. Chargers.

I had another awful day in the Market with Nvidia sliding another $5.90.

I sipped Bernenroy Calvados XO with a cup of chai and the Ghirardelli square mints. Later Suzette made a brandied strawberry sundae and offered me a bit or two.

We went to bed a bit after 9:00 when the Ravens were up by a touchdown with 1 minute left.

I loved breakfast and dinner and would have loved the Fabada if it had not hurt me.

Bon Appetit
