Cheesy Muffins, Seared Spicy Chicken Breasts, Broccoli Gratin and Tzaziki

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

Bi polar weather...  snowing & cold early...  warming slightly to heavy rain midday...  lovely orange sunset...  the Big Sloppy Apple now a slush farm as temps dip back to just above freezing overnight.  Gray snow piles littered with dirt lining streets...   pedestrians sinking ankle deep into the partially melted slop.  Temps expected to rise above 50°F Wednesday...  waiting impatiently for the mess to dissolve. 


Coffee ☕️ turkey and genoa sandwiches on rye for brunch...  hungrier than usual...  100% of ayes for a spicy chicken 🐓 supper.  The hubs descending into his workshop to continue sorting and cleaning...   work demanding attention and focus.  


Post work playtime arriving none too soon...  feeling a bit peckish...  cheese muffins fitting the bill perfectly (special thanks to Liz Gutter for the recipe) with plenty available for supper.  We so enjoyed the cauliflower gratin...  broccoli  🥦 gratin on the menu.   Seared the chicken in cast iron for a lovely crisp crust...  sliced and served alongside tzaziki...  a glass of Line 39 Cabernet to round out the meal.  


Today America passed a grim milestone...  half a million of us lost due to COVID-19.  Half a million families grieving loved ones taken too soon...  this is no time to let down your guard...  viral mutations from the UK, South Africa, Brazil and California spreading...  many are more virulent and have a greater mortality than the original virus...  when you are eligible rush to make your appointment and get your jab 💉 on...  until then...  you know what to do...  double mask up...  dance quickly through the market...  limit all interactions and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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