what's for dinner - wednesday, august 12

we're flying from denver to nyc today for my grandfather's funeral and my consolation prize is that i get to eat some real food for a few days. we're going to see a family friend on our way to the hotel and she'll have takeout ready for us, i'm sure the shiva will just be deli platters (but i'll take it. no real delis here) and then we'll get dim sum on friday. i'll swing a slice if i can. oh! and i'm bringing home a pound of cookies come hell or high water.

happy wednesday

You were visiting to say goodbye to your grandfather, so obviously this means he did not make it until you arrived. I'm so sorry, fizzgig.

Sometimes it's a blessed relief, however. I have a couple situations going on of that nature.

Now, on the other hand, what kind of cookies are you taking back?

For me, tonight's dinner will be a big tossed salad and a "cauliflower bagel" topped with ratatouille. For dessert, a cold fruit plate with ricotta, blueberries, sliced pear, and chopped mint on top. I will drizzle a little light agave over the ricotta and accompany with lemon, thinly sliced.

A glass or two of white wine.
