Asparagus Pancetta Potato Hash Anniversary Supper

Quarantine supper tonite...  Live from NYC...
Good weather tonite... the afternoon was hot but by 7:30pm the thermometer had dipped below 80°F and the humidity was a delightful 34%... the hubs and I dined on the deck enjoying Asparagus Pancetta  Potato Hash (no Pancetta, subbed bacon - worked well - Smitten Kitchen) with grilled shell steaks and a chilled glass of Grandmas iced tea with grape juice and lemon.  The hubs finished off with a piece of our rapidly disappearing banana bread.

It was a fitting celebration for the anniversary of our first date (our marriage anniversary is in November) we like to mark both...  it gives us a reason to have a  fancy supper in June...  often a wine pairing dinner at Ruth's Chris...

Our Governor and the Governors of New Jersey & Connecticut have enacted mandatory two week quarantines for anyone visiting from a COVID hotspot.  In NY that ruling is accompanied by a $10,000 fine for anyone who breaks quarantine.  It is a grim reminder of the chaos that the virus is causing in our country.  I am saddened to see the numbers spiking in Arizona, Texas, Oaklahoma, California, Florida, Georgia... and so many others.  I worry about all of you and hope that you are taking care of yourselves  😘💞

How was your day?  What's on your plate?  Thoughts?
