Tonight was some broiled cod with herb butter and a watercress & radish salad with homemade citrus vinaigrette.
Was gonna take a picture but I was too hungry.

sparks ... To make the job really easy, I use a Mandolin Slicer. Set it to super thin and slice 2 cucumbers, 1 onion (red or yellow) and 2 shallots. Chop up a few chives and toss them in as well. In a small saucepan add 1/2 cup water, 3/4 cup Bragg's apple cider vinegar and about 4 tablespoons of Turbinado sugar (more or less to taste) Heat the sauce until all sugar is dissolved ... up to but not beyond a light boil. Pour the warm liquid over your cucumber mix, crack some black pepper in there, stir well and refrigerate overnight.

Burned down some hickory in the fire pit. Tossed a steak on the embers and cooked bannock on a soapstone. Breakfast of the gods.

Started to build some crab bisque but got carried away tossing in shrimp, mussels, and a couple cod fillets. It became a frankenstein when I added diced tomatos for color, some garlic, peppers and onions. Way too thick now so clam juice and spicy V8 to the rescue. God help me, I don't know when to quit, but the frankenstein concoction and a case of beer is gone thanks to our guests.

It's been spaghetti & meatballs, and jambalaya for a couple days. Tonight I put some cheeseburgers on the grill just to break things up.

Jambalaya. Would love to try that one day. To me it sounds very similar to paella?

Yeah Charl, I think both are so close as to be indistinguishable except for local flair/seasonings like crawdads (cajun) or saffron (paella) and presentation. Eight grandkids tonight roasting (dropping) hotdogs over a blazing fire hurrying to chow down so they can make smores.  |
