Project: cooking thru my cookbooks or else…

Susan Branch is one of my favorite niche cookbook writers. She lives on the glorious Martha’s Vineyard island where she moved too in the 1970’s. It’s a bit over the top since she and her husband live in a ginormous house and she has way way too much clutter. But her books are FUN to read thru. I will leave them for now.

The Zuni Cafe is really a classic by Judy Rodgers. She died of some rare cancer in, think the early 2000’s. Zuni cafe was started by a gay man and became iconic in SF. He later died of Aids but not before it was sold and the Judy Rodgers came in as chef. It is a great cookbook but doesn’ t make the cut. If any of my readers want it, just let me know I’ll send it media mail to you.

Dark and Cold…

Wow, it is cold out this morning @ 32 and darkish. Actually the moon is up so 5:30 isnt too dark. But lots of frost in the park.

Today I’m going in to have a GP appt. My last refill for my thyroid they hassled me about not seeing the doctor. It’s like it’s normal just refill the damn thing. Anywasy, off I go. Then depending on the mood, I’m going to go the gym and do more arm exercises.

Yesterday I did and ecart grocery shop. Really brillant. You add stuff to the cart( I did my turkey) and then click when you want it. You call when you get there and they bring it out. I was going to pay cash but then the turkey was slightly more and I didnt bring extra for some reason. I wont do it all the time but for this it was convienent.
