Today I picked a lot of lettuce and made a large salad, with a tomato, PPI red onion, chives from the garden and made open faced cheese sandwiches on rye bread and aged goat milk cheese from Cypress Cove ( Costco).
After lunch I went to Sprouts for the big Wednesday double discount specials when two weeks’ specials overlap. I did not see any meat specials, but the best value was on Sprout’s olive oil in one liter bottles for $5.99. It is the best olive oil value in town even at its usual price of $7.99, because it is fresh Spanish extra virgin olive oil.
I also bought string beans for $.99/lb., asparagus for $1.98/lb., fresh white corn for three ears for $.99, 7 grain granola for $2.99/lb. and an eggplant for $.69.
When I got home from meditating at 7:00 Suzette decided to make a grilled dinner of pork steak, corn, and asparagus. We love rose’ with pork, so I chilled a bottle of H to H Cotes Du Rhone (Homage to Heritage, probably one of Total Wine’s private label wines, but a lovely drinkable rose’ for the $8.99 per bottle from a monopol of Rhone grapes).
The acidity of the wine cut through the charbroiled flavors of the foods nicely. It even helped make the slightly overcooked pork more palatable.
Kemp’s Vanilla bean ice cream from Lowe’s with Hershey’s chocolate syrup for dessert made this summery dinner complete.
