Lunar eclipse and Debussy.

Anything astronomical with sweeping strings is alright by me.  A nice time lapse for the cloudy sleepyheads that didn’t want to muscle through the slowness.

That’s quite a woodpile.

Protein/starch/veg.

Salmon (skin side up  all the way), raw root slaw (celeriac/carrot/creme fraiche/dill/lemon), mashed potato cake.

Seared tenderloin, roasted parsnip puree, gingered bok choy, caramelized onion and red wine reduction.  Knock Bruno’s if you want, but their tenderloins continually dominate.  Thanks be to Dave for the Sterling 2007 Cab.

Good cooking tip.

Safetyyy !!  Don’t deep fry gnocchi, lovelies.

Frozen gnocchi would be so waterlogged that deep frying would do this exact thing – think of water in a pre-popped popcorn kernel, guessing the same process.
