New white meat?

 

[SandwichShortOfAPicnic]

Soz no pics cos everything was a bit last minute.
Pizza, some with dairy and some with vegan cheese, all with sundried tomatoes and mushrooms. Much enjoyed.

Then this mornings Eggs Benedict, wasn’t in the mood for cooking at all but the stressed out youngest had appeared and requested it.
probably one of my better renditions.

Duck eggs with disturbingly translucent but very much set whites.
The yolks were perfect and doing a sprinkling of spring onion under the ham I can definitely heartily endorse. Yum yum.

New white meat?

Pork - it’s from an old (though continuing) ad campaign to promote pork as a healthier alternative to red meat - “Pork…the other white meat.”

Oops, I was a bit off. It's been awhile since I've seen any of those ads. I don't watch 'mainstream' TV... Usually when ads come on I do the fake 'em out channel dance and can come back to what I was watching sans ads quicker than the ad takes to play.

That’s more food than I usually eat in a meal, but it’s Mother’s Day, and I deserve to be celebrated.

Working on the rest of the plate but a repurposed potato skin from lunch, deep fried, filled with garlic mashed potatoes topped with fresh garlic scapes.

My husband baked me this cake for our anniversary!

Totally underdone in the center, but it still tasted good! He put lime zest in the frosting so it’s nice and citrusy.

Took my Mother to linner (late lunch/early dinner) out at one of our favorite places, Mom had never been.
It's tucked away in a hillside, you'd never know it's there.

We all shared an appetizer

DH ordered Pizza

I had the Shrimp Basket, there's six of them under that mound of Fries

Mom had the Prime Rib French Dip and her side she decided on a side Cesar Salad - I helped eat the salad and she ate most of my Fries - a good trade I think - I didn't want the Fries, but that's how it comes and Mom wasn't really share about the Fries - after one of mine she dung in!
It was a long haul for us - I drove 122 miles in total. Mom fell promptly to sleep in the back seat of our car on our way back to her apartment, and DH did the same from there back to our house Everyone was happy and full.
I told DH this was getting me ready for our Road Trip and doing long car rides again.
