14 and counting…..

This week’s project Mimi was an annual tradition shared by two long standing friends.  Nearly all the PM crew had previous work engagements but look for them to be back in force next week!

For 14 years PD and I have in some manner celebrated his birthday.  It falls on August 4th.  This year it seemed fitting to cook one of Mimi’s recipes – especially one notated as “perfect for a career gal” – (which of course is true for both me and PD  – couldn’t resist).  And to celebrate a year of cooking with the promise of some shopping at Williams and Sonoma.  PD is developing his culinary talents and his repertoire of personal bests – tri tip, bacon wrapped scallops, spaghetti and meatballs….   Slowly working his way up to mastery of his Mom’s apparently world renowned crab cakes.

Happy Birthday my friend.  Cheers to the next 14.  May we be drinking cosmos at the beach watching the moon and listening to the drums.
