Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC...
Spectacular day... blissfully warm with a cooling breeze... squirrel babies peeking out from their nests... robin fledglings making maiden flights... mockingbirds sporting a flash of white tail and wing feathers as they swoop down to land on rooftops... sparrows hopping about in the garden scouting for lunch... neighbors waving from porches... everyone out enjoying the sunshine.
Iced coffee ☕️ for her... hot java for him... alongside... turkey wraps... out on the deck... Mr Sam warming his toes in the bright sun... stretched out in fully pussycat glory 😻
A quick trip to the market for Mom then over to her place to visit and fill the larder. Looking perky and comfortable in her matching spring green capris and top... we sat and schmoozed for a couple of hours... discussing news... travel plans... bridge games... her friends news... and wishing her sweet aide a very happy birthday 🥰
Supper tonite... a treat! Met Joseph Bassin at a local spot we love... Kebab House... a delightful Turkish restaurant not 10 minutes from our home. The owner and Joseph have been friends for several decades and we were treated to a raft of specialty dishes that were divine. Many restaurants have not survived the pandemic here in NYC... so pleased that this one did.
The food... magnificent... prepared by the owner... a master chef... we enjoyed... dolmas... ezme... leeks... celeriac... floured and fried liver bites... and feta cigars... sumptuous appetizers... lamb cis... and lamb shank wrapped in eggplant... two mouthwatering entrees served alongside rice and a fresh salad... accompanied by a full bodied Turkish red... very much like a Cabernet. The final touch a dessert buffet of baklava... kadayif (shredded filo layered with chopped nuts and syrup😋) and fresh apricots with sliced almonds... the hubs enjoying Turkish coffee... Joseph sipping Turkish tea... what a fun night! Waddled home too full for even a glass of water 😋❤️
Covid infections and hospitalization down over 80%... vaccines are working... make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn be part of the solution... until then... mask up... limit interactions... scoot through the market and wash those germy hands 😷💕
How was your day? What’s on your plate? Thoughts?
