Anna Blume Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Sandwich of jowl rillettes, pickled red onion & roasted red pepper Cup of apple-rutabaga soup Nathan Anda suggested the filling for the sandwich, recommending the onion-rye from Quail Creek Farm which I didn't have. Wonderful nonetheless. Soup based on one from Little Inn in Washington, but transformed into something less rich and cloying (sage, celery, no cream, no maple syrup...)

kirite Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Alternating between Dove chocolate eggs and Reese's eggs, with coffee. We grilled in aluminum foil packets rockfish, shallots, carrots, and red peppers. Virtually no fat, wonderful flavors and textures, and very easy to make.

lperry Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Leftover coconut cake. This cake gets better with time as the mango jam seeps into the layers and the seven-minute frosting gets crispy on the outside. I need more cake=related events.

lperry Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 SPRING PICNIC I thought of that. I would be happy making a cake every weekend. For reasons that are beyond my conscious mind, but that are probably grandmother-related, I find baking cakes very relaxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnb Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 We're headed to friends for a Memorial Day picnic at 3pm. Unfortunately it looks like it will be an inside only get-together, due to rain. I have in the oven a whole slab of pork spare ribs with a salt-pepper-garlic-paprika dry rub. 255-260o or so for about 7 hours. We'll see what we get, but the last time I tried this it was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom used to mix in some sour cream, I used Greek yogurt. J's been nudging me to make it and I finally remembered to get cottage cheese--not something I ordinarily buy.
