getting ready to do the five. i'm going to wear a grey zip sweater. i'm not sure its a good choice. makes me look old and stale. but i figure, its friday, so i can slum it a little. plus we're doing a live five on sunday, so i have to conserve my wardrobe. I enjoy Fridays because I don't have to write a monologue, and fan mail friday is usually always guaranteed to go off the rails.
My "wine tasting" get-together with my nieces, sister and cousin was a success! We had a great time and lots of laughs. I cannot believe they are all grown now. It warms my heart that we can still make memories together. First pic is my charcuterie tray, second pic is fried burrata with vodka sauce, replicated from an appetizer I had at a restaurant last week.
“The temerity!”
“I would like the 12oz Prime Rib, no sides, and the salmon no sides.”
“What?!?”
“On a plate, Prime Rib” holding a hand up, “and salmon” holding up my other hand, beside the first .
“On one plate, no sides”
“No sides?”
“Correct”
“How do you want your Prime Rib?”
“If it’s still ‘mooing’, that’s OK…”
Then he brought me a gray piece of meat and a piece of Salmon.
“Really, to you, this piece of meat is rare?”
He immediately took it back and brought me another.
I then ordered more salmon.
I was hungry…
Pictures: what they tried to give me the first time, the second attempt, my second piece of salmon.
