I went to a late breakfast with friends, and am thinking that between not being very hungry right now and it raining, I'm going to skip the Greek food festival and either just skip dinner or reheat leftovers.

I made cassoulet. Jacques Pepin's "30 minute cassoulet" recipe, more or less, with the addition of browning panko crumbs under the broiler. It's so good and so heavy. I bought a half apple pie for dessert and we won't get to it.
And a glass of chianti, and a glass of bordeaux.

Bucatini Carbonara
For some reason it wasn't as good as usual so a waste of calories.

Impulse stop at Taylor’s Refresher (gott’s roadside) in St Helena (north of Sf):
cheeseburger
fried chicken sandwich
fried teriyaki chicken sandwich
shared fries with cheese sauce
milkshake
iced tea
delicious and I’ll never be able to make a real fried chicken sandwich.
Yep, that matches the salmon candy I would get at WF. I guess it isn’t really sweet and sour as I said last night :-)

Ours were cubes (about 1" square) of smoked salmon that had a brown sugar type glaze. They were not sweet & sour (only sweet and smoky) and not like jerky so I guess there are many definitions of it. This is what we got from the local seafood place...more expensive than I would ever buy but my friend bought it ($19.99lb)

Off topic, but interesting:
I was watching a rerun of Family Feud recently and in Fast Money there was a question asking at what time do you start thinking about dinner? The first family member said 6 pm, and the second family member also said 6pm, but then said 7 pm after she was buzzed. Both responses got a zero (0) score and they did not win the $20K.
I don't know anybody who waits that late to think about dinner. IIRC the #1 answer was 2 pm as you would think about it to plan the cooking or where you were going to go out for dinner to make reservations. (Of course, this was recorded pre-Covid.)
