I took a swim…..just too hot in Dallas. Had to find a way to cool down. SW in reference to his hat…. LOL

It was a HOT evening and a good one for being lazy around the pool. And a good evening for looking at the sky. Sadly, no takers other than SW’s hat! Rather a glass of wine with some toes dangling and listening to 80’s music as mixed by PD.

The finished product.
Cook’s test is if anyone goes back for seconds and thankfully PD did. I served it with a nice chianti and a bit of sarcastic banter …. Perfect sides.

I prefer to use fresh herbs where possible. Remember the rule of thumb is that 1 teaspoon dried herbs is about equivalent to 1 Tablespoons of the fresh. The oregano and basil smelled great when cooking with the onions and peppers. JP

God Bless this house…..
The photos are from my Mimi’s home in West Lebanon, New Hampshire, taken in June of 2012. Today marks the turn to August and at the end of this month she will celebrate her 98th Birthday. 98 years. Imagine all she has seen…..
She and Bumpy were married for over 60 years. For the last 18 she has lived alone. The photos are of her desk. On the mirror are pictures of me that I never knew she had. My Mom must have sent them; including the one of us in Paris celebrating her 75th birthday. Her room is filled with photographs of her family – my Mom and Aunt in their wedding gowns, my Mom and Uncle in their cap and gown – my brother and cousins as children. All the grandchildren. On my last visit her desk was littered with envelopes of cards and invitations to family graduations and events. Next to her chair, the newspaper which she reads daily and does the crossword.
