Venison Medallions and NYTimes Asparagus Goat Cheese and Tarragon Tart

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

Today was THE day...  it’s been two weeks to the day since our second jab 💉  we are officially able to spend time indoors with small groups of other vaccinated folks... unmasked!  


This milestone deserved a special meal...  the hubs spending his day helping our son run new electrical wiring for his basement lights...  dropping him off it was a joy to be able to hug Mark...   both of us maskless...  after all this time.


To celebrate...  time to break out the sous vide...  venison tenderloin...  a gift from our son...  along with his recipe.   While the meat cooked...  playtime in the kitchen...  NYTimes Asparagus Goat Cheese and Tarragon Tart...  a delicious savory treat.  


Supper with Mark in our dining room...  first time in a year...  the venison perfectly rare at 122°F...  brushed with an olive oil, salt, garlic and rosemary dressing...  then seared quickly in the cast iron...  fabulous...  melt in the mouth tender...  the asparagus tart a perfect accompaniment...  served alongside red cabbage slaw and a delightful Cabernet.  


Our DIL busy crafting beautiful decorations for a dear friends wedding...  we missed her smiling face but look forward to our next meal together...  imagine that...  able to have a meal together indoors...  finally!  


The familiarity of being able to simply sit in the living room...  laugh...  chat...  no masks...  feeling incredibly grateful and filed with joy to be reunited with family once again.  


The vaccine 💉 is the way out of the madness...  when you are eligible make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn  until then...  you know what to do...  double mask up...   skip through the market...  limit all interactions and wash those germy hands 😷💕

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