NYStrip Steak with Kasha a Green Salad and a Poached Pear

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

Ccccold day here in the Frozen Apple...  high temp (can we call 30°F high?) was 30°F...  low tonite down in the teens 🥶 feeling very Arctic out there in the netherworld...  no animals or even birds today...  deep winter has arrived in all its frigid glory.  


Coffee meeting cut short today with calls from family...  nurse came to give IV fluids prior to covid treatment tomorrow...  hopeful easier times ahead... a call from Mom...  shower head broke...  luckily post shower...  Happen to have one available to install tomorrow...  from our bathroom remodel...  lucky break.  


Visited the market today...  as usual waited till dinner hour...  relatively empty....  picked up supplies for Mom and some fill ins for us...  quick trip to the wine store (got to get what’s really important!) making sure we are set for at least six days...  gives sanitation time to plow...  big snow accumulator coming...  beginning Sunday night into Wednesday...  expecting up to 10”.


Strip steaks on sale today...  instant dinner!  Made a favorite grain to go with...  kasha...  a crisp green salad with sun dried tomatoes, cucumbers and red onions...   picked up a discount bag of mixed citrus with one lonely pear amongst...  poached it for the hubs...  apparently it was delicious.  Tried a Cabernet Sauvignon from Line 39 with supper...  delicious...  loved their Sauvignon Blanc too.  


Covid has reached our extended family...  seeing the impact of the virus close up is chilling.  Please folks...  follow CDC and NIH recommendations...  double mask up...  limit time in the market...  limit social interactions...  and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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