Grilled Rare Porterhouse and Oven Roasted Potato Medley

 Quarantine supper tonite...   Live from NYC...  

Bright blue skies...   calm winds...  temperatures in the low 70’s...  its November...  unrecognizable in its warmth...  two more days of this delightful weather before seasonable temperatures return to the Big Apple...  mid 50’s through the day and into the low 40’s at night.  Working in the greenhouse today...  collecting ripening tomatoes...  loosening soil around plants so they can breathe...  watering where needed...  sweeping leaves off the deck watching them flutter to the ground.  Squirrels digging in the garden leaving tiny round holes containing acorns everywhere...  next year we will have loads of volunteer oaks to pull up.  Found out recently that squirrels can smell acorns buried in the ground... how about that?  Amazing little thieves 🐿 


The hubs has been such a good sport lately...  enduring my often meatless meals...  quiche for dinner...  tuna casserole...  today was pay back... a big fat juicy porterhouse for supper... rare... with a side of oven roasted potato medley  and a crisp green salad.  He gets the strip side...  and the bone...  filet side for me...  an appetizer of fig and Brie on crackers with a bit of vino while the grill came up to temperature... followed by vanilla shortbread cookies straight from the oven.  It was all delicious. A mini celebration 💙


We sat on the couch after supper watching the news... the horrific increases in covid cases... now over 10 million in the US alone...  over 240,000 souls lost...  please... wear a mask...  limit social interactions...  and wash those germy hands 💕😷

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