P had a big show in Brooklyn tonight. I wanted to make a dinner that was not too heavy, yet would be filling enough to last all night and give energy. I wanted the food to be festive. This was to build a base for a great evening
The night went very well and show was spectacular. The food was so-so. I wanted to make this warm crusty bruschetta with nectarine and tomato topping that is heavenly normally with just the right amount of juicy tomato olive oil and lemon with the sweetness of the onions and nectarine...but somehow I didn't get the right bread and it was just okay.
The steak was thin and good and the roasted asparagus was the right choice and super tasty. Nothing blew your socks off and ended up being the beginning of my cooking rut that I am now in the middle of. Sometimes the best that you can do is just to show up and let what's gonna happen happen.
One star shines brightly tonight and another one burns out. (sigh)
