December 28, 2017 Lunch – Canyon Club Dinner – PPI Rib Roast with Mashed Potatoes and blanched Spinach
Suzette threw up last night and became sick. We were not sure if it was the food. Last night I ate poached pears and yogurt for dessert and this morning I ate granola, yogurt, milk, and blueberries to try to stave off any possible food borne ailment.
Today was our December book club meeting. Mike was host and he reserved a private dining room at the Canyon Club in the Four Hills Subdivision, where he is a member. We could chose from either the breakfast or lunch menus. I chose a Cobb Salad with blue cheese dressing. Charlie chose a green Chile meatloaf sandwich. There were lots of interesting sandwiches and entrées.
After lunch we reassembled at Mike’s house and discussed Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow until 5:00
Charlie drove me home. When Suzette arrived around 5:30 she was still sick and went to bed, not be seen for the rest of the evening. At 6:45 I made dinner out of mainly PPIs, pieces of the standing rib roast and mashed potatoes and celery root from last night’s dinner on a pile of spinach heated in the microwave covered with Saran.
I dabbed the dish with liberal amounts of horseradish cream sauce and opened a bottle of Cherry BlossomCalifornia Pinot Noir.
After dinner I smeared pieces of bread with butter, PPI foie gras and Camembert as I watched TCU play Stanford in the Alamo Bowl game. TCU started poorly but its defense and offense began to dominate in the 4th quarter and the Frogs came from behind to win the game 39 to 37 in the end. A great game.
Bon Appetit
