June 22, 2022 Lunch - East Ocean. Dinner - Sautéed ground beef, asparagus, onion, mushrooms, and green onions served over sliced creamer potatoes.

i spent much of today recovering from our Midsomer celebration last night.

I ate a bowl of granola with milk and blueberries and yogurt at 9:30 when my new client came for a 2 hour appointment.

I then drove to East Ocean to meet Robert for lunch.  We shared a platter of deep fried tofu with mixed vegetables and discussed a case until 2:00.

I went to the bank and deposited a dividend check of $2386 paid upon the 342 shares of PXD.  That is a whopping $6.97 per share that indicates to me that President Biden is correct when he says oil companies are experiencing unprecedented profits.

I then went home and filed a motion to extend the date for filing my reply brief in the water case.

I watched the news until 5:00 and read some of The Last Rose of Shanghai until 6:00 when the NHL finals game 4 began and we started dinner.  Dinner was easy because we combined mostly PPI’s, specifically the hamburger helper we prepared several days ago with the small creamer potatoes we cooked last night for dinner.

I sliced six mushrooms, the ends of two onions, and about seven of eight stalks of asparagus.

I then sliced six or seven small creamer potatoes.

Suzette sautéed the ingredients with sour cream and water to make a sauce and added green onion slices.  The sliced potatoes she heated in the microwave.

While Suzette was cooking I fetched a 2015 Primus The Blend from Chile and a 2012 Origon Gran Reserva from the basement.

Suzette selected the Primus for the meal, which was a god choice because it is a heavy wine with depth of flavor. 

The blend rates 3.9 on Vinvino and sells for a bit more than $21.00, so not a shabby wine.

Suzette thought it went flat after about 45 minutes, but no complaints about the wine.

Suzette served the meat and vegetables medley over the heated sliced potatoes garnished with green onion slices for a quick and delicious dinner.

We watched hockey and soaked in the hot tub between period 2 and 3 for twenty minutes.

The Avalanche tied the score 2 to 2 in the 3rd period and won in overtime to take a commanding 3 to 1 game lead in the series.

We were thrilled because we are cheering for Denver to win the Stanley Cup.

After the game I drank a cup of tea with two fudge sticks, a wonderful cookie made by Keebler we bought on sale at Smith’s last week.

The market went down a bit today so there is not yet a reentry point to buy back the Apple, Nvidia, and Square shares I sold.

Bon Appetit
