Another spectacular day here in the Big Apple... temperatures in the mid seventies... humidity in the 'no need to wring out' range... bright skies... a light breeze... a pleasure all around. We need to enjoy every minute of it because by weeks end we will be back in sweatland at 85° and 70% humidity...
Went to visit Grandma today... bringing her groceries and spending time chatting and catching her up on our week while she shares hers with us. We were able to sit with the sliding glass doors open to provide her safety while we visit. I so want to take her home to my house so she will have us for company each day, but it's not safe for her to be here yet... patience... it's hard... but patience...
A month or so back I ordered Almond flour on the internet thinking it was a good value for 12 ounces (should have checked the weight... was it EVER a good value) 4 lbs later and I'm looking for recipes using almond flour besides the Almond cookies I made back then... so today I made the NYTimes Pan Baked Lemon Almond Tart by Mark Bittman... one of the cooks notes indicated a few changes to the recipe which appealed to me (one less egg and increase the almond flour to 1 1/2 cups) didn't have any slivered Almonds and no substitute but it worked fine without... WOW ... what a delight... moist... lemony... light... not overly sweet... will definitely make it again.
