Tried something new. Fillet Mignon with a port wine reduction sauce - which is the "juice" you can see on the plate. The sauce was interesting. It was a cup of port wine, 1 cup of red wine (I used a Zinfandel) and a cup of beef broth - with shallots, rosemary and butter. It was cooked down until there was less than 1/2 cup of liquid left, then strained. Slightly sweet and very flavorful.  |

Dinner tonight was grilled chicken, sautéed (in a pan, on the grill) zucchini, eggplant and mushrooms. The zucchini and eggplant were from the garden. Served on a small bed of brown rice.

I add some dried porcini mushrooms and figs to mine and it gives it some great depth of flavor |

Sadly, Mrs. Rios Thai Kitchen was closed this evening. So, an additional 20 mile drive to the next town, Ft. Garland, CO. There we ate at "Dell's Diner". A roadside diner with the menu to match. Double Cheeseburger smothered in Chili con Carne with fries. Not great but certainly good and I was thankful they were open.

Into another cycle of Chemo. I eliminated Felodopine from my BP drug mix and that seems to have reduced that sense of collapsing when standing. My Cardiologist added it when I was peaking and now I do not seem to need it. So, that is a big improvement for me. |

If you find the wine reduction too sweet add a little red wine vinegar to the mix. |

Tzatziki sauce, chopped tomatoes, onions kalmata olives chopped pre-cooked beef fajitas and a drizzle of olive oil folded in a pita. Assemble to your own taste. Tzatziki is just Greek yogurt, chopped cucumbers and dill blended together and let it sit overnight. |

Jäeger Schnitzel made in the traditional way. I used a bone in chop rather than a paillard. Browned in oil and then into the oven since it was a thick chop. Traditional gravy with mushrooms. Boiled potatoes and cabbage. Pilsner on the side.
