I agree. Salad sounds wonderful. Did you just shave raw fennel, CE?

I did! We had a leftover ahead of fennel so it was nice to throw it in.

It's heartier than a veggie salad, but I found a Lidia Bastianich recipe for a fennel salad once. IIRC, it was mostly thin sliced fennel, celery, maybe red onion, along with some matchsticked cheese and salami. I believe it has a lemon vinaigrette dressing. Maybe it's a faded memory, but I remember thinking it was delicious. I haven't made it since, but made need to Google it soon.

Sounds like it could be tasty!

I did roast pork last night with crackling. That bit in the middle didn't get as crunchy as I wanted, I think I may have cut through to the meat when I was scoring it and a bit of juice got onto the crackling while it cooked. Served it with some greens and roast vegetables which sat under the pork and got all the juice.

Homemade biscuits
Sausage

Fruit
Hashbrowns

with coffee??

A couple of fried eggs on top of that please!

How are your biscuits? I'm, at best, the novice-est of novice bakers, and have tried making them twice during the lockdown. Both times flatter and denser than they should be. I think I may be over-working the dough.

My spouse makes the biscuits, and she has a recipe that is much simpler than most in part because it uses oil instead of shortening/butter. In any event, they are delicious :)

Since a long bout of heavy-duty antibiotics earlier this summer, coffee just doesn't taste right/good anymore :( And neither does milk :( (These are known side-effects of antibiotics longer term)

as long as you can taste the biscuits, that’s all that matters!!
health is wealth

and are you still drinking coffee for the caffeine or have you switched away from coffee?

Carryout Cheeseburger & chocolate milkshake

Carryout pizza with artichoke & spinach
carryout pepperoni pizza
”taco salad” with chipotle Crema / lime jalapeño dressings
first carryout pizza & salad since March or February 2020!
Note / secret - I actually think my panic pizza is extremely better because it’s hot. I’ll try the artichoke / spinach toppings in the future. I’m still not going to bring pepperoni into my house.

soon to be cake desserts

That looks like pepperoni to me.

I mentioned that I had carryout pepperoni pizza and that I’m not bringing pepperoni into my house.

Big yay for lobster

I’m excited for when you add cigarettes to the mix.
