Taco tuesday
Grilled short rib tacos on homemade flour tortillas with pickled red onions, grilled yellow onions, cilantro and lime. Grilled pineapple I love leftovers |
The food trucks are back. They park by the clubhouse which is a 1 minute ride from the house in the golf cart. I will pick up the scallop dinner and the fried clam dinner, both come with fries and slaw, and have them still hot when I get home. Then we split them and wash it all down with Abita Purple Haze.

Grill. I’m not allowed to cook fish indoors. Fortunately the grill is under cover so I can grill in any weather with no inconvenience. And the salmon comes that way from Publix, although I’m pretty sure I could duplicate it.

Green Chef has taught me how to do glazes. Maple salmon glaze is as easy as pouring a little maple syrup on the filets before they go on the grill/in oven.
Are you in the Villages? Mr Gfunk is set on renting a house there next winter if we are still working from home. I told him we are much too young to be living there even for a month, but he just wants to play shuffleboard and go everywhere in a golf cart. |

last night’s supper - cheeseburger sliders on roll-ppang, leftover poached salmon, Yukon gold oven-baked fries, and grilled corn on the cob. Maybe tonight - crab cakes (spouse), oven-baked russet fries, raw carrots, roasted cauliflower, leftover carnitas (me), cheeseburger sliders (our child). I’m out of plain roll-ppang so the sliders would have to be served on bays English muffins, White pita, or sourdough baguette (extremely unlikely - it’s so brutally hard). Or French toast for our child. |

Do the 3 of you ever all eat the same dinner? I am trying that Girl and Goat cauliflower recipe tonight except I don't have any pine nuts...mostly everything else I am doing though. |

Well he was doing a maple glazed salmon so unless he made a separate sauce, poaching isn't going to work.

That was the rule at my house growing up. Nobody EVER asked the kids what they wanted for dinner, except sometimes on their birthday.
I was pretty open minded. Very few times I couldn't find something on the table to eat. |

my child isn’t dictating their supper but rather has expressed their interest. French toast tonight. We’re in a pandemic and I have time to cook. We all get to enjoy nice lives. thankfully we get to express ourselves. Our child’s school already dictates the luncheon. I’m happy to allow choices. Obviously I had more limited choices as a child so it’s nice that we all get to enjoy more nice things now. Big trade offs because my childhood home was larger than where I now live. Total slumming here... gaobest...i know that you are doing more cooking these days...do you ever try to teach your son to do some cooking along with you? |

Tonight it will be smoked haddock and spinach risotto, with a bottle of R de Rieussec Bordeaux blanc sec.

Not sure what we'll do tonight. Mr Gfunk will probably want take out. Ooh, or I could get salad and potatoes and grill some burgers with the ground beef or bison in the freezer. |
