Wednesday 21 August
Friends are filtering back into
town as the start of school grows closer.
So tonight we had Lauren over for a very informal dinner, and got to
catch up with what she's been doing over the summer (living with her husband like normal people, that's what).
It was the simplest of meals. Bruegger's sesame bagels, a package of lox, and
a batch of our homemade whitefish salad, served with sliced tomatoes, garden arugula,
and various of our pickled daikon, cucumbers, and tomatoes.
Lauren brought some very good
fumée blanc from Long Island; not surprisingly, Long Island wine goes well with
bagels.
Finally we had a rather special
dessert: Aglamesis peach ice cream topped with cookie crumbles and
basil-flavored whipped cream, left over from the peach-cobbler-in-a-jar Holt
made for David Warda on his birthday.
And then there was bourbon, which
goes well with anything.
