September 13, 2025 Breakfast - Lax and Bagels Lunch - Monroe’s   Dinner - Brats with Red Cabbage and Chicken Calabacitas 

I woke up at 6:30 and watched Fulham v. Arsenal.

Then at 7:00 I toasted slices of bagel. Then smeared them with cream cheese and garnished with Gravad Lax, red onion, and capers and ate them with a cup of tea.

Then I watched the last climb in the Vuelta, which Vinnegaard won by about 35 seconds over the next rider to win the Vuelta.

Carlos arrived at 8:00 and worked with Suzette until 12:30 when we drove to Monroe’s for lunch. I ordered a beef enchilada  dinner with Calabacitas and refried beans. Suzette ordered a single carne adovado enchilada with sour cream. We love the high atrium in the center of the restaurant. After lunch I worked at my desk until 4:45.

When we returned home we thawed two brats.

Then at 6:00 Suzette made dinner from leftover red cabbage and the chicken Calabacitas with the sautéed brats.

Suzette and I peeled the horseradish from our garden that was drying out in the basement and Suzette pureed it in an electric herb blender and mixed it with Mayo, and mustard for a wonderful sauce for the brats

I opened a bottle of Mencia and we enjoyed a meal of mainly leftovers with the sauteed brats.

We watched Bill Maher and Have I got news for you and then I watched some football and blogged and went to bed at 10:30.

Bon Appetit
