 August 24, 2021 Lunch - Thai Spice Drunken Noodles and Massaman Red Curry   Dinner - Massaman Curry with Patty Pan Squash, red bell pepper, and tomato with rice

I ate a bowl of granola, milk, yogurt and blueberries for breakfast.

Then I dealt with a few house repair issues and then took a 2/3 mile walk.  

I showered at 11:00 and discussed lunch with Rahim.  When Rahim arrived he had two surprises; Nizar accompanied him and they brought two delicious dishes from Thai Spice at the corner of Wyoming and Paseo, Drunken Noodles and Massaman Curry

Both dishes were wonderful; the spiciness was tantalizing, picante and sweet and delightfully balanced.

We ate the Massaman Curry over rice and the picante sweet and noodles also had that same combination of spicy and slightly sweet that balanced the two flavors.  I was very impressed and will put Thai Spice on my list of restaurants to try in the near future.

After lunch I worked with Rahim on a matter until 4:00 and then watched Ari Melber on MSNBC who is my favorite news anchor after Rachel Maddow.

Suzette did not come home until 6:30 and rested for a bit to decompress.

At 7:30 we decided to use the Massaman Curry from lunch as a PPI.  We added one diced Patty pan squash, 1/4 diced red Bell pepper, and 1/2 of a tomato and combined the enhanced curry with about 2 cups of rice in a Pyrex baking dish which Suzette covered with Saran and re-heated in the microwave.

The result was spectacular.  The additional ingredients dampened the curry’s spiciness slightly, so it turned into a mostly vegan stew with only three or four strips of beef.

We drank Warsteiner Oktoberfest beers with dinner.

After dinner we watched the news until 9:00 and then Suzette went to bed and I stayed up to work a bit and write this blog.

The market was static for me today with a very small loss.

Bon Appetit
