Taste of Thai. It’s really nice inside and the owner is so cute and sweet.

I love rice so I should have tried a rice dish instead. I would never have tried the pad thai if I’d known it had peanuts. That was my biggest mistake. **Alice** , I’ll check out the curry next time.

I have a big pile of meat\* and 10lbs worth of pureed farm fresh tomatoes. Gonna be a big ol pot of meat sauce aka “gravy” come this evening.  
\*Meats include a piece of beef braciole and a piece of pork braciole, some ribs, meatballs, and hot italian sausage. A braciole is a thin cutlet wrapped around cheese and herbs.

I made extra.

Beef-heart stew. Cut the heart up into bite-sized chunks and cooked it 23-24 hours in the crockpot with half a bottle of cider, a couple of cut-up onions, salt, pepper and Penzey’s Turkish seasoning. Added some frozen mixed veg this evening, let them cook, and then served it. Tasty…

Yesterday we roasted a butterflied leg of lamb on the grill, and had roasted brussels sprouts. Hubs and roomie had something potatoey that I skipped as I wasn’t in the mood.

Tonight is leftover lamb, not sure how yet. Tomorrow is corned beef and cabbage with potatoes, onions, carrots and celery.

Pork ribs, with a dry rub and marinade/reduced sauce loosely based on Alton Brown’s recipe, but this time we’re going to throw in some cherry mead and see what happens.

I made potato salad, but cheated and bought Mariano’s “Summer Cole Slaw”, which has a bunch of different veggies in addition to the cabbage and somehow tastes almost just like Brown’s Chicken \*old \*recipe for tangy slaw, but isn’t scary orange.
