Roasted Marinated Chicken Legs

Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC...
So, we all got to meet Fay today...  and tonite...  and tomorrow... she is a real wet blanket...  and a blow hard too...  she just ran up from North Carolina...  no two week self quarantine...  no consideration for others...  just shows up in town demanding ALL the attention and totally rains on everyone's parade.  I am fed up with Fay...  and she won't move on...  just hanging around making us all wait until Sunday to be free of her...  geez...

We were supposed to have barbecued chicken legs on the grill tonite but with Fay in town it was impossible...  so they got roasted in the oven.  After two days in marinade they were delicious...  moist... crispy skin...  spicy...  the cumin and turmeric giving them a warmth amidst the heat.  Served along side a Greek salad and baked potato...  accompanied by the last of our delicious Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon.   Coffee and tiramisu made for a delicious end to a lovely meal.

Yesterday we finished putting up the greenhouse...  this morning at 6am noting Fay's arrival, we attached it to the deck with rope...  I am happy to report that it is safe and secure... the 50 mph gusts would have blown it off the deck for sure.  We have decided to leave it tethered it to the deck...  we are in a windy spot and I don't want to be Dorothy lifting off to Oz one afternoon while gardening (what an image)

In speaking with one of my clients tonite (ICU nurse) I am saddened to say that too many folks are disrespecting our front line health care workers by refusing to mask up...  each time a heath care worker sees someone without a mask they feel angry...  disrespected...  unappreciated...  they don't understand why anyone would risk being infected with COVID...  they see just how horrific this disease can be every time they go to work risking their own and their families lives to help us.  Please do your part...  for them...  wear a mask in public and put away the ego...  for them ❤️
How was your day?  What's on your plate?  Thoughts?
