It is summertime, everyone. It's official. Start up your grills.
And look at this beautiful burger - Amy put onions, salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce into the meat, and they grilled up beautifully. This one has cheese, sauteed mushrooms, basil leaves, tomato, mustard and BBQ sauce on it. Lightly toasted sesame seed bun. You hungry now??
By Susanica Tam. Yes, she is a really good photog. Perhaps now you'd like to eat this stuff? Mmmmm, it was delicious.
Steak, beans, potato, and cucumber salad. Jonathan is also drinking fresh grapefruit juice with tequila and sugar-water.
This was Wendy's famous artichoke dip. MmmmM!!!
The Ukrainian borscht, with sour cream and parsley...
And the tangerine olive oil Bundt cake.
So this week's random dinner with friends featured some old and some new classics. First: my cousin Wendy's artichoke dip. It is SICK AND WRONG, and was nearly devoured, wiped clean, before dinner. There were only five of us, btw, and I had to cut another baguette because all of these bread slices were consumed.
Then - homemade vegetarian borscht. This was a holdover from last week's Ukrainian night but Susanica still hasn't sent me the pictures. Naughty. ANyhoo, this pic is from after I stirred in the sour cream. Delicioso!!
And this was for dessert - tangerine olive oil bundt cake. Redonkykong.
H.D. the bread babe is up to his old carbohydrate tricks again. This time, he tempts us with homemade honey wheat pancakes. Whole wheat, that is. He is obviously not a proponent of the Atkins diet. But it sure looks yummeh!!
Yes, this was part of Ukrainian night - Scott made some delicious cabbage rolls from his mom's recipe. We have more pictures of this night's feast, but area awaiting them from, cough cough, someone who took them, cough, Susanica, cough.
