Since Suzette is out of town I have practically stopped cooking and started foraging in out fridge for PPI and ingredients that need to be eaten.
This morning I ate ½ of a bagel with cream Cheese that was a little iffy with a slice of sweet onion and several slices of my homemade Gravad Lax plus a few capers with a ½ cup of hot chocolate mixed with ½ cup of PPI coffee and some milk heated in the microwave. I have always enjoyed the mixture of hot chocolate and coffee, but I am usually too lazy to make it so I was happy to find that Suzette had left some coffee in the pot.
I met Mike for lunch at Taj Mahal. We are both veterans. I would think the axis of the earth had shifted if Mike did not get a Diet Pepsi and three drumsticks of tandoori chicken and he probably feels the same about my plate full of saag smothered with riata. Today it seemed we ate a little less.
I invited a Willy to join me in eating the last PPI Boeuf Bourguignon, mashed potatoes, and steamed spinach. I decided to make a chopped Caprese salad, also. I chopped the 4 or five remaining slices of fresh mozzarella, two tomatoes, 2 oz. of sweet onion, and a small handful of fresh basil and dressed the caprese with fig balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
There was a freeze warning so I went to the garden and picked about two cups of basil leaves. Then when Willy arrived I invited him to.pick basil, because he likes it so.
I toasted and buttered three slices of Le Quiche Bakery wholewheat bread and gave Willy two small slices.
Willy sad he really liked the dish, which made me feel good.
I drank a cognac after dinner with a piece of chocolate.
Bon Appetit
