Sunday dinner...
Another fantastic evening with my family. I'm getting a little sentimental about Sunday dinners. Sunday has always been a family night. I cook for my wife, my three kids and my dad. My kids never make plans for Sunday evening. It's a tradition that we spend Sunday evening together.
My dad is 84 now and he never misses Sunday dinner. My kids love their grandpa like I do. My son leaves for college in a few weeks and I know it won't be the same when he's gone. Anyway, tonight I tried something new. Roasted asparagus in olive oil, salt, pepper and dried red pepper. The salmon is wild, caught by the Klamath river Indians. It was rubbed with olive oil, salt, pepper and minced garlic. It's served on fillo dough that's topped with fresh pesto and sliced heirloom tomato. We drank a Pinot Noir from Domaine Carneros. I'm going to miss these days.

We have the same tradition. Sunday nights we all eat together and no one is late to the table. It was hard for us to adjust when my big boy went off to college. He's still home for the summer but in a few weeks he'll be gone again for his sophomore year. It'll be quiet again at the dinner table. We look forward to his visits and for our trips to see him. Good thing he's only 2 hr away.
Nice spread, btw, Moses. |

Should have taken pics tonight. Lots of shrimp with four flavors, bacon-wrapped, cajun, blackend, and mesquite. BBQ corn on the cob and mushrooms and onions. Looked and tasted great. Wife and son, daughter was going to attend, but couldn't (school studies) and mother in law is in the hospital from a TIA brain fart a few nights ago.

Moses - You're a good cook and have strong family values.
After my snafu in the Pelican Classifieds, I just ate a lot of crow today......

Looks good, Moses. There is another reason to head your way once I get ready to plan our trip to America. I wonder if thats why you have not noted your location..

Nice dish Mose............kudos for taking care of your dad as well.
Like salmon? try this one. Too simple! Salmon filets (3 -4) Chives/scallions (6 - 8) Large bottle of Teriyaki Sauce (orange label) not the marinate Place salmon in microwaveable dish (needs cover) that will hold the fish and entire bottle of teriyaki Chop up the chives/scallions into two-three inch pieces and lay all over the filets . pour the teriyaki over the chives and fish....the sauce need not cover the filets Cover the dish and place in microwave Cooking time varies with the size of the filets and how well you want the salmon done. Start with a few minutes and then check, as they cook fast. I like to cook long enough to get the salmon lightly browned. A friend cooks for awhile, removes and drains most of the juice and reheats so the underlying skin gets really well done. Several variations, depending on your liking but the teriyaki is the key! Fast, easy and amazingly tasty! Serve with a sweet potato and your famous asparagus I tossed this together at a marina one night on a friends boat in Savannah, GA. He charters for a living. Ever since this dish (which is now his favorite) his clients always ask for it! Its been a favorite of ours for awhile: "Bobs Teriyaki Salmon" If your a teriyaki sauce lover, its worth a try. Bob |

We had pot roast (crock pot) with taters and carrots, with home-made gravy and garlic bread last night. It didn't last long enough to snap a picture tho .....
