November 13, 2024 Lunch - Mu Shu Pork at East Ocean   Dinner - Asturian Bean Soup with Corn bread muffins

I ate a chocolate croissant with a cup of chai for breakfast around 9:00.

Then I had a meeting with a client at 10:00 at 11:30 Suzette returned and at noon we decided to go to East Ocean to try their Mu Shu Pork.

The Mu Shu Pork was a little greasy and did not have much or any egg in it, but they gave us thinly sliced green onion spears to wrap in the Mandarin pancakes with the Mu Shu pork and plum sauce.

We ate two filled and rolled pancakes and then took the two remaining pancakes and the rest of the Mu Shu home to eat with extra scrambled egg.

After lunch Suzette drove us to Restore it on Menaul to look for a shower liner, but she did not find one.

We then drove to Rehm’s Nursery where Suzette bought nematodes to put into the raised beds where she suspect there are grubs, because nematodes eat grubs.

When we returned home I checked my portfolio and found that it was down.  Then I worked on the checking account in the State Bank of India and at 4:00 I drove to the bank to have a document notarized.

When I returned home at 5:00 I had accumulated 1800 steps so I walked  around the block. When I returned home I had accumulated 3400 steps by bedtime I had accumulated 3800 steps.

Dinner - Suzette suggested we make corn muffins to eat with the Fabada for dinner. She went the basement and found our ancient steel muffin pan and buttered and filled the cavities with a corn muffin batter she made from the recipe on the box of corn meal flour.

The cornbread muffins were lovely cut in half and spread with butter and honey. They reminded me of the corn bread mixed into regular bread dough that is a favorite bread in Northern and western Spain, where many farmers raise a path of corn.

We also went to the garden and picked a basket full of kale and chard leaves. I destemmed the green portion and we added the greens to the beans.

I ate an extra cornbread muffin with butter and honey for dessert.

Bon Appetit
