foodie entry #582.09
May. 22nd, 2002 10:18 amLast night after I finally tore myself away from the Diesel (ok, all the other people who were still left at that point were leaving too), I started the food production part of the evening.
First, a stop in Porter Square for the couple of groceries I ne eded, which of course grew into a few more things... I also ran into JB, who I haven't seen in ages - glad we had a few minutes to chat.
Then home by 8.30 for the first major food production of the week, 2 dinnersworth of food. Well, almost: I had some leftovers to fill out last night's menu, and I have a couple of side dishes left to make for tonight's delivery to a neighbor. But anyway.
Last night I made: salmon baked with lime juice plus extra lemon-lime-melon juice with pepper, and mango cubes; qui che A with mozzarella and scallions; quiche B with mozzarella and herbs; quiche C with feta, spinach, and halved cherry tomatoes; a cherry tomato and scallion salad with feta and a simple balsamic vinaigrette.
So dinner last night was fish, salad, leftov er veggie soup (heavy on the leeks and parsnips; from Shavuot), leftover noodle kugel, and some awesome bread with seeds in it - the brand When Pigs Fly now has a hechsher :-).
Tonight I bring quiche, rice with chickpeas, carrots, and probably something else (fruit? dessert? another veg?) to people in the minyan who need some help right now.
(The bitter person in me did wonder why it is that someone in the minyan has coordinated meals, etc, for people who need help (illness, new baby, bereavement, etc), yet no one in the minyan offered to help me when I was one-handed, besides the 2 people I called from the emergency room, and they didn't do very much (Others have helped me tons, and I thank you for it). Perhaps I am not wrong to have shifted my social circles away from the minyan....)
Current Mood: planning the next cooking spree of the week.....

[Alrighty then. This v refuses to be deleted, despite multiple attempts at editing it out. So stay there, then. And now, I suppose, I'll get some other random character at the end as well. So take it as read that I would try to delete it as well, except that apparently I can't, since I've been through "Edit Entries" more times than I'm willing to admit.]
[update 18.25: What I brought over for their dinner: the scallion quiche, a green salad with pine nuts and zaatar vinaigrette, carrots steamed with red wine and mint from the porch, brown rice with chickpeas.]
