Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC...
Sun beaming in the windows... light creeping across the living room floor... Mr Sam snuggled into a ball enjoying the warmth... temps rose to 40°F... the Big Apple slowly melting... drip drip drip under the deck... slats appearing here and there between the frozen snow... puddles along sidewalks camouflaging dips and cracks in the pavement... potholes once visible now filled with snow melt... a danger for drivers.
Few days left before the holiday is upon us... last minute details... candy making... NYTimes rice crispy treats with dark chocolate and pretzels... salty... sweet deliciousness... doughs in the fridge ready for baking tomorrow... pretzels waiting to be dipped in meted chocolate... wrapping... delivering... the crunch has arrived.
Delightful treat from the kids... gorgeous flowers and a masked visit... made our day!
Supper tonite... a favorite reminder of our journeys to New Orleans... Tasso Shrimp and Cream. The hubs smoked a whole spiced pork loin over the summer... diced and frozen in small batches... Tasso... that elusive ingredient that makes this particular recipe taste like heaven. Today it worked it’s magic along with diced poblano pepper, onion, garlic and lots of delicious herbs and spices in a heavenly cream sauce tossed with pasta and served with shrimp roasted with garlic, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika... divine.
Covid stats are still increasing across the country... please think before you make holiday plans... check the CDC website for tips on staying safe... review the infection rate in your local area... and most importantly...
Mask up... limit social interactions... and wash those germy hands!
How was your day? What’s on your plate? Thoughts?
