BAT (Bacon Arugula and Tomato) (maybe as late as Saturday)

Bacon from La Quercia (they call it smoked pancetta, but clearly that means bacon, and they used to call it bacon), Arugula from Cleverly Farms, Tomatoes (grown in dirt) from Butcher Crick Farms and bread from Wild Yeast Bakery. All excellent ingredients, I feel lucky that I can have these in my life at a certain point to make a magically delicious sandwich.

So there's a company that has been using "liquid gold" as a tag line, and other then the semi-unnatural color, there is clearly a bit of puffery going on there. However the nearly clear pork fat that was rendered off of the La Quercia bacon, that is liquid gold. I'll have to figure out how to use that in...something (maybe just spread that on toast?). Yes this is clearly my internal fat kid talking, but when it comes down to it, I don't spend that much on bacon that often.

Egg Salad Tartines with Mixed Herbs

So the already boiled salted water + eggs + 9 minutes then an ice bath, seemed to work well with peeling, that and having really fresh eggs from Grade A Gardens. This came together really well, making my own mayo, all the good things.

Lamb Pizza with Parsley - Red Onion Salad

Delayed! I was still adapting to being at work for several hours a day. When I was supposed to do this, I was so exhausted I had to take a post work nap (there are a number of reasons for this, but that's at least one of them). The dough is out for it's final rise today.

Tandoori Style chicken (skipping the grilled Naan)

I served this over a bed of lettuce, and we were graced with Joseph's presence for dinner, which is always nice, I don't get to see him enough. The chicken tasted pretty good, and wasn't to hard to make.
