+1. Also, some vanilla ice cream on those peaches.

Normally I am a stickler for getting a protein, a starch, and a veggie on the table.

Ground up basil doesn't count. Tomatoes are starting to come in!

I think this is right: - schlag, + vanilla ice cream

Sheesh you guys are picky.

I didn't have vanilla ice cream - though I agree it would have been very tasty. But I did have heavy cream, and a whisk.

Found a good shanghai place tonight. Had fried dumplings, crispy carp in sauce, and chinese watercrest. It was very good, and relatively cheap.

Had an interesting dish at a local italian place - Capuzzelle della Nonna, which was half of sheep's head stuffed with breadcrumbs and spices and baked in white wine. The brain was my favorite part. Mrs. Dmax was a bit freaked out.

It still tasted yummy - I went heavy on the pine nuts and garlic for a little more bite and depth - but it really ruined the presentation. For dessert, baked peaches with a balsamic vinegar, vanilla, and sugar glaze, served with fresh-made whipped cream. All washed down with a nice Barolo we've had hanging around for a few months - we ran out of our everyday table wines. Time for a trip back to the liquor store!

Note Yorkie #1 at far left in first pic. They all got a nibble of tenderloin at the end of the night.

Looks good, but what's with the watch pic next to the plate....hopefully not dessert, as I've heard they do not digest well??

Sunday: Moved furniture. Raided the fridge on my way back to the city. Lounged around in my apartment for 6 hours or so with a few cold ones. Checked my credit card statement and almost cried. Sleepy time by 12.

Don't worry, I'll be back in action this thursday.

Wrong thread, Dude.

Had a simple oyster 'stew' last night. Just some oysters cooked in a sauce of green onion, ginger, some wine, stock and oyster liquor.
