May 13, 2026 Breakfast - Pain au Chocolate Lunch - Mary and Tito’s Dinner - Sautéed Salmon with Sautéed Roasted Potatoes and Snow Peas

I got up around 6:15.  I watched the market dip and then recover for the NASDAQ to end up over 314 points and for my portfolio to increase by 1%.

At 10:00 I ate a pain au chocolate with a latte macchiato.

I made one more step toward dematerialization today. I received acknowledgment of acceptance by ICICI Direct of my application.

At Noon Henry arrived for lunch and I drove us to Mary and Tito’s. Henry ordered Chichirones, beans,  and red chili. I ordered a taco plate with two tacos, refried beans, and  lettuce and tomato garnish. I love the food at Mary and Tito’s but the fresh flowers on each table are fabulous.

We ate until 1:30. When I returned home I worked until 4:00 and napped until 4:45 when Suzette came home.  Then we ate som pistachios and then at 5:30 I drove to El Super and bought avocados, limes, lemons, oranges, cilantro, red and brown onions, a butternut squash, Brussels sprouts, Mexican squash, green onions, an eggplant, tomatoes, and Fuji apples.

Dinner - 

When I returned home at 6:45  Suzette helped unload the groceries. Suzette thawed two salmon filets and we snapped a pile of snow, peas.

Then Suzette blanched the snow peas and re-heated PPI roasted diced potatoes and leeks and then tossed the snow peas with the potatoes. She sautéed the salmon fillets and I poured glasses of Chablis Premier cru.

After dinner we watched Trump’s arrival in Beijing and sipped a limoncello with a lemon cookie.

Suzette went to bed at 9:00. I stayed up to watch the WNBA game between LA and Indiana Fever.

Bon Appetit
