lagilmanToday, I wrote no new words. I did, however, put RiP on top of my non-writing to-do list. It is done.
---------------------------
And in case you ever wondered what suri might serve if you dropped by for dinner... probably something like this elegant and surprisingly easy show-stopper I made tonight:
Take two top sirloin steaks, thin-cut, and toss them quickly with a small amount (seriously, you don't want to use too much!) of white truffle oil. Set them to sear on a very hot grill, turn, and layer on top of the seared side a thin shaving of boucheron cheese. Turn off the heat and cover for a minute or three, to let the juices set and the cheese begin to melt. Remove the steaks and serve with starch and veggies (I used saffron rice and roasted red peppers). wine of choice: an off-dry reisling.
Dessert: scrape the grill, then add one sliced ripe pear. Grill. Remove, and top with a splash of lime, a sprinkle of allspice, a dollop of honey, and a scoop of french vanilla ice cream. Serve while pears are still warm.
Guests have to do the dishes, yo.
