Menus

Friday night we went over to the neighbor’s house for a swim with snacks and wine, then progressed to our place for dinner, at which we ate:

Gazpacho
Slow-Rise Bread
***
Italian Pork Stew (from Rustic Italian Cooking) on whole wheat noodles
Sweet and sour leeks, served at room temperature
***
Chocolate Pudding Cake with Dulce de Leche Ice Cream and Fresh Raspberries (How Much Am I Supposed to Capitalize?)


Last night Grandma was here for Sunday night supper. We had:

Portuguese Scallops
Roasted beets with walnuts, parsley, olive oil, and vinegar
Green Bean Salad (see August 20th post)
Roasted sweet potato cubes
***
The same chocolate dessert leftover from Friday—somehow we had the willpower to save it.

We also watched a baseball game. My passions these days pretty much boil down to cooking, piano playing, baseball, and road trips.
