Corn Porn Salad |
I love making salads from the last of the sweet summer corn. Somehow it becomes more special when you know it's going away. I made extra and took a bowl to work for lunch. You can't fully appreciate a fresh healthy salad without the juxtaposition of some Strawberry Cake with Whipped Cream, someone once said. The corner market sells delicious cake and pie by the slice, which is perfect for those of us who like the one and done method. I'm not comfortable with sweets lying around my home, taunting me. This was so moist and soft. I enjoyed it as a last indulgence before my mate returned home from his trip.

Both the largest cauliflower and celery bunches I have ever laid eyes on, were on display today. |
Instead of a free-wheelin' time, P's adventure was fraught with turmoil. It seems some gal T-Boned him in West Virginia and totaled his beloved car. Then the rest of the time was spent figuring out insurance and how to get back. A sad end to a cool free ride and way out of this city on weekend getaways. But like many good things, this wagon came to an end. RIP, the Paddy Wagon. Thank God that's the only thing that died out there.In anticipation of his return and to help ease some of the sorrow, I slow-roasted a pork shoulder with Nigella Lawson's aromatic spice mixture. The smell would fill the house as I would not be in it when he came home. I love it when he goes away but I love it more when he comes back.

Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home?
