 February 23, 2021 Lunch – Open faced Sandwiches  Dinner – Grilled Halibut Steaks with Steamed Broccoli and Three Potato medley

 I ate a bowl of granola with milk, yogurt, blueberries, and grapes for breakfast at 9:30.

I prepared a case for filing in Court, Complaint, Summons, and Answer.

I worked until 1:30 and then made a plate of three sandwiches; slices of liverwurst on German Fullkorns bread with mayo, mustard, and slices of red onion and Iberico cheese, a slice of French baguette spread with cream cheese and garnished with a slice of red onion and slices of lax, and a slice of Bosque Bakery Whole wheat bread spread with sour cream and garnished with pickled herring in wine sauce and onions.

The market was in disarray today it dropped dramatically on the open and then came back dramatically to close up for the day but I still lost .4%.

At 3:00 I then drove to the Magistrate Court in Los Lunas and filed the case and waited for the process server to arrive to take the papers for service.

When I returned home Suzette was already home.

 

We had made a plan with Willy to grill halibut and eat outside tonight before the sun set, so at 5:20 she put the Halibut on. Suzette likes to lay lemon wedges under and on top of the fillets and place dabs of butte on the fish, which makes a light lemon sauce while the fish cooks.  I love this simple method of preparing halibut because the fish is so delicious that there is no need to enhance its flavor.

I cut the flowerets off a stalk of broccoli and placed them in the steamer with water  on the stove. When the fish was half done Suzette turned on the heat under the steamer.

 

The last dish was a medley of three potato preps, Cottage Fries, the Potato, tomato, and onion tart Suzette made a couple of days ago and the Mashed potatoes she made for the Sautéed Chicken.  We sautéed the cottage fries to golden brown and then Suzette added the PPI tart and mashed potatoes to the skillet and mixed them.

This produced a delicious dinner and I had just the wine for it.  I opened the bottle of 2018 Kirtland Chablis Premier Cru we had bought at Costco last week.  It was not the best Chablis I have ever drumk, but it was really good.  Lots of fruit and acicity.

 

We carried our plates and glasses of wine and silverware out to the gazebo and ate our dinner surrounded by a beautiful pink cloud sunset.

As the sky darkened and it cooled, we went inside at around 6:30.

 

Willy left and we watched Finding your Roots and then I blogged and Suzette went to bed at 8:30.

 

Bon Appetit
