So what's for dinner at your house?
My partner brought home a selection of cheeses and deli meat, so we're having that with olives, baguette, wine, fruit (pomegranate, grapes, plums). We're arraying in in a sort of buffet-style layout and we're going to just enjoy TV and our dogs this evening. Among the choices are:

Horseradish cheddar
Wild morel and leek Monterey Jack
Drunken Goat Gouda
Chelmsford Stilton
Point Reyes Blue
Fines Herbs Brie

Cappicola
Lebanon bologna
Sundried Tomato Ham
Cracked pepper turkey
Dry salami
Roast beef

3. Sure, come on over!
We've kind of turned into foodies since the election debacle. Anything to keep us moving forward, right?

6. I'm at about the point
where I would kill for some cheese, especially that brie.

Damn it. I hate having high cholesterol.

I'm going to make some risotto with salmon. I'll put a little bit of grated parmesan on it. A very little bit.

13. I'm at the point
have a great broiled or grilled salmon recipe for you.... my daughter thinks this is the greatest. We love things spicy but can be scaled down to non spicy.

17. I grill a lot of
salmon. I get it at Costco and it's pretty cheap out here on the left coast. Always looking for new ways to cook it. Spicy is good for me! :-)

7. That sounds delicious!
I made a chunky meat and veggie pasta sauce and served it over penne. Had enough left over to freeze, which is a good thing these days.

15. Dinner
Just put a very small ham in the oven, poured Sprite on the bottom of the pan and will soon top with brown sugar. I'm not a fan of ham but just have a taste for it. Whatever ham is left will use for pea soup and sandwiches, ham and eggs.

20. Hubby is cooking
I love weekends because he's an excellent cook - I cook weekdays because he gets home late but I'm pretty boring. He's making Chile Colorado tonight with mexican rice, refries and flour tortillas. Yummy.....

24. BBQ chicken
French loaf, sliced cukes and tomatoes. Nice light summer meal. The chicken was fabulous, it's been marinating all weekend in white wine, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar (the really good kind).

33. Untidy Josephs, fries, peas, ice cream. Milk, lemonade or coffee.
Sundays we keep it simple, I usually don't even cook. Popcorn, cheese and fruit is our usual Sunday fare.
