What did you cook or eat today (August 2020)?

[LadyBelle]

Pasta, with courgette and ricotta. Perfect way to use up the garden produce.

 

[Windigo]

Perfect, wonderful!

Yeah it really was all I hoped for

That was the most wonderful birthday dinner. Just amazing

We started off with some simple French bread, butter and camargue salt. The bread was delicious and authentic.

Then we both had lobster bisque.

My husbands main was moules mariniere ( mussels in white wine sauce ) .

He downed them all in no time, said they were great.


And for me steak au poivre, soft as butter. Also gorgeous.

Then for dessert my husband had white chocolate mousse with banana icecream and caramel sauce.

And I had Iles flottante ( floating islands) which is meringue with caramel sauce on custard. The meringue was divine, like a floating pillow.

This is a slapped-together meal, as I forgot to thaw the chicken for schnitzel:

My wife absolutely loves Sonic, second only to Steak And Shake, and for the record, my least favorite fast food burger is Whataburger.

No accounting for taste, huh?

Them's fightin' words in Texas, padner.

I love Whataburger, and like Sonic burgers, too -- with tater tots!

So I wasn't just drunk and Whataburger is really as good as I remember? We don't have them in NE Ohio.

It might be regional, but Sonic burgers up here suck.

 

[Milkduds]

The smell of Sonic tater tots literally makes me gag. The burgers are meh. I do love the tea though.

Very nice! That's about twice as long as I cook a pork shoulder. It didn't dry out? How did you cook it?
