Sep 17 - addendum - we do eat well

Whether traveling or at home, we do eat well.  I used to always mention what we had for dinner, in the blog, but often forget now.  Just as there is a sameness to eating poorly, there can be a sameness to eating well.

Last night was no different.  When at Costco the other day, I checked out the meat section and the lamb chops looked particularly good.  They also had lamb roasts and the usual racks; all were from Oz.  I'm not sure why that is but don't particularly care. 

The lamb chops were thick and well trimmed.  Sandy's not a big lamb fan but she does like the ribs, well trimmed, marinated and on the grill.  I thought that perhaps these chops might also make the grade ... and they did !  Sandy did the marinade all day yesterday and I grilled them to pinkness perfection.  They were wonderful.

Sandy also did some new potatoes for herself; I grilled a portabello mushroom; frozen peas accompanied.  Now frozen peas wouldn't be on any gourmet menu but they are good, easy and particularly when there's nothing else in the house, fills the bill !

The prior night we had pickerel from Tarini's in Sudbury.  Also excellent, not quite as fresh as Dave-caught, but good nonetheless.  I haven't been able to bring myself to go fishing alone ...
