Getting back into the groove here...this time only 2 months between musings...and I believe that I have a rant coming soon. But the rant will have to hold on until another eve...tonight is the night to wax lyrical about another gustatory delight.
This all starts innocently enough. I picked up the free local liberal fishwrap. Not because I agree with the editorial comments of those leftist pinko commies, but because I am amused by the leftist pinko commie cartoons and it has great music reviews.
Lovely bride also likes to peruse said fishwrap for reasons of her own.
Anyhooooo, Saturday we are out driving somewhere and love of my life says "there is a farmers market and craft show under the bridge this weekend, wanna check it out". Sure says I, secure in the knowledge that we have no cash so I will not be forced to buy ANYTHING. But I will get to be a good doobie and do something fun with the lovely bride at an approximate cost of $0.00. After all what could be better than spending quality time with the bride for free...and I like craft shows and farmers markets too. You always get to see neat stuff.
We browse, we window shop, we pick up merchandise and exclaim how we could make it better for 1/2 as much as these clowns are charging. We do all of this FOR FREE. What a great country....then we happen upon the Tapenade booth...with samples of....stuff...looks like pickle relish...on wafer thin rosemary crackers...no wonder he's giving away samples...who would ever buy this sh....
OHMYGODTHISISABSOLUTELYGREATYOUHAVETOTRYTHISMAYIPLEASEHAVEANOTHER!!
I have to settle for the samples you see, because I have no cash...what do you mean you have a WIRELESS credit/debit card machine??
Returning home, lovely bride decides to use this "stuff" (Gourmet Tapenade) in a new dish....
Fresh Mayport shrimp and bay scallops served over Whole Paycheck Organic Pasta with fresh herbs and ricotta goat cheese with her signature avacado summer salad....
SHEET 'dat dere is slap yo momma good...
Then for a follow up I come home tonight and she has sliced some leftover steak thin placed it on rosemary flatbread and loaded the avacado salad and goat cheese on top of that...it just doesn't get much better than that...
I only awarded her efforts a 9.5 out of 10...single servings just don't get 10's from me...and she MADE me share...
she got to have some...
Pooh got to have some...
thus cutting down my consumption and her score....maybe if she reads this she'll make some more...tonight would be good...its early....now she needs a dessert to finish it off...tonight would be good...it's early...I work late tomorrow...tonight???
