Valentines Day Supper... Banana Cake with Cinnamon Crunch Topping and Leftover Chinese Food

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

A quiet Valentines Day...  last nights freezing rain melting away with  35°F on the thermometer...  gray skies...  haven’t seen the sun in days...  no one out on this dreary Sunday save a few dog walkers hustling along huddled into coats...   scarves wrapped around faces against chill winds...  even the dogs hurrying along...  their nails clicking on the cold cement.  


Rested up in the morning...  coffee ☕️ scrambled eggs with smoked Gouda and onion rolls for brunch...  late day excursion to the market then off to Mom’s to delivery groceries and spend time socializing masked and distanced.  She is back walking her laps twice daily...  fully recovered from her sore knee...  no apparent adverse reaction from her vaccine 💉 Tuesday.  


The hubs relaxing...  leg elevated...  brace supporting...  keeping an eye on Mr Sam...  less wobbly today...  his appetite excellent.  


Came back from Mom’s a bit late...  leftover Chinese food from last night on the menu...  eggplant 🍆 broccoli 🥦 chicken 🍗 brown rice 🍚 in a delightful sauce served alongside pork dumplings 🥟 made for a quick and filling supper.  Dessert a banana cake with cinnamon sugar crust...  moist and tender...  wild sweet orange tea for the hubs.   Our Valentine’s Day relaxing and pleasant...  ready for the week of storms ahead.  


Covid infections still present throughout the US...  variants from the UK, South Africa and Brazil spreading fast...  when you are eligible sign up and get your jab 💉 on!  Until then...  you know what to do...  double mask up...  short market trips...  limit all interactions...  and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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