With my tomato bounty, and a dark, rainy day, I decided to bake up a tomato zucchini tart. I just winged it, based a bit on the zucchini parmigiana I’ve made a couple of times this summer, and it turned out to be not just pretty but delicious (basic quiche crust filled with a couple…

Nice day. Nice weather, nice swim with Nathan, nice evening for a baseball game (even though we lost), nice (late) dinner of a quick shrimp pasta thing that I made up as I went along (shrimp, garlic, and red pepper flakes sauteed in olive oil, tossed with pasta). NICE!

After a kinda crazy morning of carpooling for golf, then back home, then back to golf, then to the junior high school, then to the grocery store, liquor store, and home to prep a few tasties, I was ready for a nice, long chat and a cool glass of wine with my aunt Marge and…

Outside it’s thick-y, sticky, and hot, hot, hot, so I’m cookin’ up a batch of…hot cabbage soup. What the? Yeah, I know, rib-stickin’, winter-all-the-way soup, but I got this head of cabbage in my veggie share, and it gave me a hankering for cabbage soup, it did. So, much to John’s horror, I simmered up…

Happy Birthday Susanna! I hope it’s not as hot in Montana (where she is) as it is here – hoooooeeeeey, it’s smokin’ out there! Not a cloud in the shimmering blue sky. My car thermometer read a withering 101 degrees and that’s exactly what it felt like, for two hours of Nathan’s baseball game. Ouch!…

Chill day, me, myself, and I, no driving, cooking, groceries, laundry, dishes…nothin’. Friday is turning out to be my Saturday. Thank god. I’m a little taxi-drivered/dutiful-wifed/cooked/entertained out lately. Just a little. As much as I love all of those things. I’ll be back on track tomorrow, I will. But for today, sweet, sweet privacy, ahhh……

Oh believe me, I am very aware of how lucky I am (in general) and to be dining (this evening) at La Belle Vie. I’ve been wanting to eat there ever since they made the hop from Stillwater to Minneapolis. But it’s reputedly a rather involved meal, which is not Johnny’s style, at all, so…

Again, the hawk! It is very impressive, I must say. Just landed on the deck a few minutes ago. I ended up sweating my brains out – and my makeup off, according to Nathan, who pointed out it was dripping down my face, neato – sitting out in the sizzling hot sun at a baseball…

A day of cutie cute cuteness! Cooper Doo, and Addison and Nikko too, all here to swim with Nathan. Addison and Nikko were girlie little fishies, splashing, swimming, wiggling, and giggling. When we were sunned out, and starving, we dried off and head over to El Meson for an early dinner. Immediately opened with several…

Cheer up my friend! Suz has a terrible case of puppy fever, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy fever to be exact, and there’s no solution… Viv has a known allergy to dogs, although has experienced no symptoms with regular exposure to various of her friends’ dogs (like Siggy-Roo!). But after a trip to visit a…
