I filled in the menu with baked rice, Mediterranean-style sauteed green beans, crusty bread, and a first course of avocado, shrimp, and cherry tomatoes. All of it washed down with some good wine and a good time was had by all.
Then Colleen put the Barefoot Contessa to the test again yesterday with a menu for grilled lamb in pita bread with various condiments such as cucumber, tomato and onion. VERY GOOD. She purchased everything at Costco and the tzatziki, cucumbers, tomatoes, hummus and pita bread were all excellent. All washed down with some very good wine. Craig brought a 2002 Shafer cabernet that was superb. A couple who live down the street, friends of Craig's, were here to share.
We have had one or two tiny sun breaks, but the rest of the time has been cloudy and/or showering. Ken has been able to spend some time working outside in the yard.
Colleen and I prepared for the summer sandal season and got pedicures yesterday. A luxury yes, but fun anyway.
We have no plans for the weekend. I see that Sideways is on pay-per-view this weekend so that will probably be tonight's entertainment.
Ciao
