Lamb Feast in Nashville

Thursday August 27

When visiting the Kelley-Parker abode, we try and fit in a visit to the local Costco, where we load up on things we can't get elsewhere, like giant jars of artichoke hearts and cheap legs of lamb. We also try to make a big family meal, so the latter served as an excellent main dish, once again rubbed with mustard and broil-roasted until it was good and rare. Garrett was unsure of whether lamb was one of the things he ate, but he good-naturedly tried it, and we were pleased to find that it sure was. He ignored the imported Cincinnati pattypan squash, steamed and served with butter, but the rest of us did not. David (had he known) provided the wine, a classic 2003 Paradigm, and we only wish he'd been there to enjoy it with us.
