husband (my granddaughter decided he wanted one)
It really came out beautifully. I will have someone take a picture since my camera is on the blink. Also tiramisu is in the frig and cornbread makings are on the counter but think I
will call it a night and do that in the am.

 
Couple of hard boiled eggs, smoked summer sausage, excellent New York Cheddar, Rainier Cherries

A local chef posted on FB EARLY this morning that he was doing Vodka sauce on tv in B'ham

so I started craving penne with vodka at 6:30 am. We don't have many places that even serve it and none are as good as the place I loved and ate it at about once a week that has been closed for years so I came to FK first thing and found Marianne's recipe and made a batch - close to the one I want but still not quite there.

Then DD wanted pork chops since she didn't eat any last night so I made some pork chops too. It all went together well.

I have salmon marinating in a hibachi grill style sauce for supper and I bought some ground lamb on clearance at Harris Teeter and wondering how that would taste in Skyline style chili - SIL made that for us last week when we were up there moving MIL and now I want some more - she did okay with it but it wasn't as good as when I make it. DD says it's a shame to use lamb for anything other than gyros but I'm not in the mood to make flaming lamb gyro shishkabobs on the grill again.

I made Alton Brown's recipe which is good but really doesn't work on the spit like he recommends - so I left to go to the store and she was supposed to watch but didn't - I returned to look throught he sidelights on my front porch - through the entry, hall and den out onto the porch only to see 3' flames coming out of every seem in the gas grill - I managed to salvage enough to make three sandwiches. I've made is since as a sort of meatloaf and cook until firm then chill and slice thin and pan saute quickly. Still, I LOT of work.

 
Burrito of last night's chili-lime chicken fajitas with grilled yellow peppers and onions, with ...

...a little Arroz a la Mexicana (Mexican Rice) and shredded mexican cheeses inside.

Viva la Raza!

Can I tell you how jealous I am of all the wonderful lunches discussed here? I had a "lovely" green

salad, the best part was the freshly roasted beets. Followed with a half a small cantelope, still warm from the farmers market.

 
So you are the culprit that planted nthe passionfruit seed in my brain! I bought some today to make

tomorrow. I love passionfruit ice tea. Thanks and yum!
