Last night's very pretty dessert: slices of store-bought angel food cake with homemade mini Lemon Sorbet Cups and Citrusy Raspberry Sauce.
Recipes
Congee For Dinner (And Breakfast, And Lunch…)
We may have gotten a bit over-excited and partaken enthusiastically of the Chang beer during the evening pictured at left. Fortunately, the very next morning we were introduced to the wonders of congee...more or less a hangover cure in a bowl.
BBQ with Mom and Dad / Perrrfect Potato Salad
Menu for Friday night's BBQ with Mom & Dad: Blue cheese-stuffed burgers, summer corn, and Perrrfect Potato Salad (recipe after the jump).
Last-Minute Dinner Solution
Surprise dinner guest = no problem at all...at least when you have lemons, basil, mozzarella and pasta in your refrigerator (I pretty much always keep these ingredients handy exactly for occasions like this one).
New Favorite Cheese
All of the cheeses we sampled at Casellula last night were excellent - seriously, you must go to this place if you live in the area (Midtown West) - but I need you to try the one pictured above, second from bottom.
