Well, turns out I did indeed sand- and slaw-wich myself out yesterday (not a surprise, ha). So, no Zabar’s corned beef on rye for lunch today. Just slaw-as-salad, sliced garden tomatoes, and a few last bites of the grilled pork…sniff, sniff…we miss it already. That was a true summer treat, mmm hmmmm. You know, I…

Ouch, ouch! It wasn’t just the pork shoulder that got smoked over the weekend, someone carelessly got waaaay too much sun yesterday. Not moderate, Stephanie, not at all! It started innocently enough – a soft, gorgeous morning, cerulean blue sky, warm (not hot) sunshine… I thought I’d head out for a quick swim. Well, two…

Oink, oink! I’ll be earning my nickname – Smokaaaay – today, oh yes I will. The pork shoulder is on the grill, I repeat, the pork shoulder is on the grill. Butterflied, pricked and stuffed all over with slivered garlic, dry-rubbed with lots o’spicy spices, now slow-smokin’ over (a foil packet of) hickory chips. I’ll…

Looking forward to dinner at Luci Ancora tonight, with Stacey, Bowen, Cooper, Dad, and Stacey’s awesome friend and neighbor Caroline. I’ll check back in after a bit with the yummy details… Picked up my La Finca CSA veggie share – this week’s treasure includes Walla Walla onions, basil, garlic, and a few early tomatoes, as…

BLTA&B. Not to be confused with GLBT (ha), it’s a bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado sandwich with an ice-cold beer. Mooooaaaan, it was soooooo good, a lunch my dad would definitely appreciate. I meant to take a pic, but unless I shot it en estomac, it’s way too late. I inhaled that baby, couldn’t help myself….

With my tomato bounty, and a dark, rainy day, I decided to bake up a tomato zucchini tart. I just winged it, based a bit on the zucchini parmigiana I’ve made a couple of times this summer, and it turned out to be not just pretty but delicious (basic quiche crust filled with a couple…

Nice day. Nice weather, nice swim with Nathan, nice evening for a baseball game (even though we lost), nice (late) dinner of a quick shrimp pasta thing that I made up as I went along (shrimp, garlic, and red pepper flakes sauteed in olive oil, tossed with pasta). NICE!

After a kinda crazy morning of carpooling for golf, then back home, then back to golf, then to the junior high school, then to the grocery store, liquor store, and home to prep a few tasties, I was ready for a nice, long chat and a cool glass of wine with my aunt Marge and…

Outside it’s thick-y, sticky, and hot, hot, hot, so I’m cookin’ up a batch of…hot cabbage soup. What the? Yeah, I know, rib-stickin’, winter-all-the-way soup, but I got this head of cabbage in my veggie share, and it gave me a hankering for cabbage soup, it did. So, much to John’s horror, I simmered up…

Happy Birthday Susanna! I hope it’s not as hot in Montana (where she is) as it is here – hoooooeeeeey, it’s smokin’ out there! Not a cloud in the shimmering blue sky. My car thermometer read a withering 101 degrees and that’s exactly what it felt like, for two hours of Nathan’s baseball game. Ouch!…
