Food

I recently got to visit with my family after way too long. It was a wonderful visit. We made it a point to not plan anything, to just sit and be with each other. I must say that it was a really wonderful time.

While I was there, my sister looked through the pictures on my phone. It was surprising (even to me!) how many photos of food there were. Here are some I like.

This was a very yummy salad from Nostrano in Madison, Wisconsin. Oh so good!



This is a pork shoulder dish from the same restaurant. You should really go there.



This was a bowl of soup that hit the spot on a cool evening.



This is a poor chicken that I burnt on the grill. In the interest of full disclosure, I ended up burning it more than this, much more than this, and it was inedible. Lesson learned: you can't cook a chicken quickly on the grill. And yes, that is a beer can in its butt.



This is a grilled chicken breast sandwich I made the other day. My niece Krystal and I had just finished a hard day working at our yard sale and were really hungry, so I made us sandwiches. Funnily enough, before either of us took a bite, we felt compelled to take pictures of our sandwiches.



And this is a pretty plate of heirloom tomatoes. I dressed them with olive oil and a little vinegar. It was really nice.
