T.G.I.F.??!!  It's a Friday am, but in these days of "shut-down" and "stay-at-home", there is not the same difference for week-ends versus week-days.

Good morning friends🙂 I made my cup of coffee this morning and when I poured the milk in----lets just say I did not

drink it.....can you say "sour"😲.......I didn't realize it had gone bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Will be going to the grocery store today!

 

Yesterday I decided to get out of the house for a while and drove to the beach. I found a really good seafood 

restaurant and had a lovely lunch of fresh flounder with a spinach cake and salad. Talk about a good deal...12

bucks for that awesome lunch😀.  I will be going back there again.  It is called "The Fish Company".  I had never

eaten there before. Glad I stopped in for sure!

 

And Terry, you are right about the days.....Friday is just another day.......it is like a weekend (especially when

you are retired😀 ) Except you can run errands without all the crowds LOL

Hi friends,  JP,  I tried a new eggplant tonight.........well, new for me anyway.  It is called "GRAFFITI EGGPLANT" and it is DELICIOUS!

  Much sweeter than the normal ones.......and much smaller. It looks like the ones below.  I decided to

buy one only.  It is much more $$$ but I thought oh well, try it once and see how it is.  It was 4.99/lb.   No need to salt

it either.  All I did was slice it and  sauteed it in olive oil and then put grated parmigiana cheese on top.....(melted).

No sauce.........it really tasted fabulous😀

Now it's Saturday and we have the weekend to rest up from the pressures of our hectic Monday-Friday "Rat Race" routines.  Feel the difference?

Below are a couple of "new" comedy classic voices from the past that I have not previously posted.  Steven Wright is a special favorite as his brand of "DRY" humor is very unique.  Sometimes requires a little "thought".  Second is a famed TV classic, Jonathan Winters.  With a varied presence on TV during his peak, Winters grew up in our state of Ohio and actually started his television career at the local CBS station here in Columbus. Rememberer these two?

 

 

HAPPY CANADA DAY!!  It's coming up Wednesday, July 1.  How and why do I always remember?  July 1 is my wife's birthday (won't share that number) and in 2002 we were crossing into Canada on this day from Glacier National Park into Waterton Lakes N.P.  The security/border official gave us a Canada pin in honor of the day and thus was merge the joint celebrate for both my wife's birthday and Canada's holiday.

I did a little cooking this weekend. I made some savory crêpes filled with ground beef and cooked in a Bechemal sauce with Gruyère cheese. I should have doubled the sauce but I didn't want to double my weight too.
 

 

The air fryer does an amazing job with cauliflower, BTW. 

 

Yesterday I got out the pasta roller and we made homemade pasta with prosciutto and sage.

 

Raw material, mostly from the herb garden. The herbs are out of control! 

 

 

I rolled the pasta dough and Chris cut it crosswise, into short rustic strips to match the strips of prosciutto. There were about 3x this many. One cup of flour and one egg will make a decent amount of pasta. Should be plenty! 

 

 

I cooked the prosciutto with sage, green onions, and garlic. A few cherry tomatoes for some color.

 

 

Fresh pasta cooks fast so once it was ready, into the pot with some grated Grana Padano cheese, and cooking water to make a light sauce. I shoud have added some butter but I was being good (or was I saving room for more wine...?).

 

 

On the plate, with fresh parsley and more cheese for good measure. 

 

 

It was delicious but I was hungry again in two hours. So, dessert time, of course!

Hi, J.P.  Looks super wonderful!!  Do you deliver to Central Ohio?  Should I call GrubHub?  You are making me hungry.  Need to have lunch now.  But, unfortunately, I will not be able to have anything looking and tasting that excellent.

Terry, we had leftover crêpes for lunch today. There are still enough left over for one more lunch but I don't think they will travel very well. We'll just keep them for later this week.
