Now that summer is here, and Jack only has to go in to school a few hours a week, I'm having a hard time remembering what day it is.
It's a lovely thing to be able to forget.
I've also been opting for the simplest of foods, mostly served cold.
I like to make a pasta salad along these lines, with orzo, cherry tomatoes, spinach, feta, and pine nuts.
Tonight we're having arugula, potato, and green bean salad, which is surprisingly delicious.
And last night we rolled sushi, with avocado and smoked salmon.
We bought a grill on Memorial Day weekend, just a simple round Weber, and grilled bulgogi on it last week. Yum. Tomorrow we'll grill some surf and turf deliciousness.
Despite the fact that the latest Bon Appetit had Gwyneth Paltrow on the cover, I've been using a lot of its recipes: crispy roast chicken thighs, watermelon granita (use less sugar than they recommend!) and strawberry/blueberry striped popsicles. And then sitting by the (inflatable kids') pool.
