Porterhouse with Farro, Napa Cabbage Slaw and Broccoli & Citrus Plate

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

Today the lamb arrived...  52°F...  sunshine...  light breeze...  a big taste of spring...  lots of folks out walking...  light jackets...  smiling beneath masks...   neighbors waving to one another across streets and backyards...  flocks of birds circling overhead...  a pair of hawks riding thermals...  squirrels chasing one another up and down tree trunks...  leaping branch to branch...  life returning to the Big Defrosting Apple. 


Visited the greenhouse in the warmth of afternoon between appointments...  no jacket required...  soon time to clear out winters debris...  preparing for spring plantings...  the structure weathered the season without ill effect...  itching to start vegetables again.  


Supper tonite...  porterhouse steak...  farro with onions and chopped broccoli stems simmered long and low in chicken broth and herbs...  roasted broccoli crowns...  napa cabbage slaw with red onion...  to finish up... a citrus plate of grapefruit mandarin and blueberries. Served alongside a glass of Sauvignon Blanc to round out the meal.  


Mom is feeling well...  no ill effects from her 2nd vaccine yesterday...  she has two weeks more until full efficacy when we can visit her freely...  so pleased she is safer.


Covid still a risk...  until you can #GetYourJabOn you know what to do...  double mask up...   sail through the market...  limit all interactions and wash those germy hands😷💕

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