so things aren't that bad, but some days i feel like i may have sold myself down the river.
weekend back up:
saturday i managed a pie. it was a chocolate number with a deep chocolate ganache buried inside. the strawberries i topped it with were the inspiration for this culinary adventure, the berries themselves were bland and not very palatable, they needed the chocolate.
sunday i was treated to bunch by "nat" a friend of a friend. his black bean cakes were better then anything i've made for myself in weeks. he inspired my to pick up Judith Jones book "the pleasure of cooking for one". i'd like to devote sometime to making some of these meals.
and:
i've given up reading anna karenina for now. not for any good reason. instead im reading "it must've been something i ate" the follow up text to "the man who ate everything" by jeffery steingarten, a true culinary adventurer.
