One of the things I've found hardest to do in pacing myself these days is not being able to cook everything from scratch. I just don't have enough oxygen to do all the preparation. So today at Costco, Mike & I bought fresh wild-caught salmon fillets that had been topped with dill and herb butter. Those were easy to put in the oven to roast. To go with it, we had parsley new potatoes and sautéed onions & bell peppers where all the veggies were from the CSA veggie box. All in all a delightful dinner, even if it was partially semi-homemade.
And when DD was setting the table, she even got out the fish knives. How cool is that?
Becky, your dinner looks beautiful! I'm sorry to hear them you've not been well. Isn't it great when the kids come into their own, and actually show you that they absorbed some of what you've taught them. Take care....Mary
ReplyDeleteMary, thanks so much for stopping by and for your kind comments. It truly is wonderful to see both the girls enjoying cooking and taking care to present a lovely table. And I thought remembering the fish knives was pretty good for a 15yo.
