What's for Dinner, Fri., Jan. 10, 2025

Appetizer: marcarpone and lox on crackers. Capers, cracked black pepper, and olive oil drizzled over the top. Cold shrimp with cocktail sauce and lemon.

Pasta with creamy red pepper sauce and sausage bits. Chopped basil, ciligene, parmesan, and cherry tomatoes over the top. I made the red pepper sauce a few nights ago.

Kombucha: ginger lemon.

Dessert: Half a red velvet cupcake and Earl Grey tea.

Steamed vegetable dumplings served with stir fried brussel sprouts, sliced carrots, mushrooms, chopped onion, minced garlic and air-fried crispy tofu in an orange-sesame sauce. Apple-walnut cake for dessert. Iced green tea with lemon. Cheers! 🥂

Lime Lassi. I slept all day basically. I did wake up this morning and had my traditional English muffin with Boursin gournay and olives, V-8 over ice.

Then I had a hot chocolate made with evaporated milk and I think it put me in a sugar coma because I fell back asleep and didn't wake up until almost 1700.

I'm already back under the covers with my electric mattress pad cranked up and in heaven. I can hear the freezing rain hitting the window. Wish me sweet dreams.

your time during a snowstorm! Enjoy. We had ours last weekend. I'm still trying to dig out of it. Car has actually gotten out of the driveway once, and barely made it back into it.

with green bell pepper and the last of the olives I bought in Corning, CA last year (an olive growing area: if you ever find yourself traveling between San Francisco and Portland on I-5 it's worth stopping at the Olive Pit in Corning to get some of their many varieties of olives.)
