I have a strip steak in the fridge for dinner but lunch was pan seared salmon.

Really nice photo, Mr. Op. That even looks like a sockeye's jaws.

I think you'll like it!
guys!
I planned to pan sear some scallops, but I can't find them in the freezer, so it'll be boiled shrimp tonight.
Chief Longwind Of The North said:Our dinner was at Sprout's house, with her husband, our grandkids, P.A.G. and her hubby, and one of my sons. The food included roasted leg of lamb with a wine reduction sauce, rustic cut carrot, turnips, snap peas, and peas roasted with the lamb, challa, the bunny rolls that I saw here on D.C. (made from challa bread dough), saffron seasoned couscous, and for desert, red-velvet cake with cream cheese icing. My beverage of choice was milk, but there was also grape juice, and water.
Church was especially spiritual today, though we weren't in our home branch. Great day, great family, great food, what else is there in life? I wouldn't trade this day for anything.
Seeeeeeeya; Chief Longwind of the North
Considering that the Easter celebration pre-dates Christianity (it is, after all, named after a pagan goddess of spring and fertility - Eostre), I'm not sure why Christians would only think of it as their holiday.this idea of mine started a few days ago as i listened to a few sports people, that i regularly listen to on the radio and have been vocal about being atheists or agnostics, were suddenly talking about what they were doing for passover or easter dinners. it really bothered me.
Roasted the turkey, skipped the maple glaze, went with cumin-scented roasted sweet potatoes, broccoli, homemade cranberry salsa, and Swedish Almond Cake. Added a yogurt-dill-garlic dip alongside the homemade hummus and pitas (which turned out great, as usual). I also put out some of these:Roast turkey, here, too, glazed with maple syrup from our trees, baked sweet potatoes, steamed broccoli. I have hummus and fresh baked pitas and veggies to tide us over until the turkey is ready. Dessert is Swedish Almond Cake. I'm thinking about dressing it up with a drizzle of lignonberry sauce when serving it...
In our family we just celebrate the coming of spring... ironically with snow on the ground this year. We're good people. We care about our neighbors. Probably not much different than you. We just don't go to church is all.what did you have today? celebratory in any way?
i'm always open to learning. i'm humble enough to know that.
