Yesterday:

Pressure washing during rain showers equals a muddy girl

these socks were white when I started out

but damn, look at those sparkling rocks!

all the way down to the fire pit, gloriously clean and non-skid (mostly)

dinner: my tagine experiment of lamb with pistachios, dates, and almonds

tasty with buttered cous cous

Tonight: Live Blogging Tostones! Tomorrow's party menu includes these delectable twice-cooked plantains with garliky dipping sauce. Tonight Charlie did the first fry to save some time tomorrow.

after the first fry, squashed and ready for the second

Oooh the lamb sounds lovely. And couscous! We can't have couscous in our house: Lisa can't have wheat, soy, mustard, or (a recent discovery) Sezchwan peppercorns. ~sigh~ I now have to be very careful and creative when I 'speriment. But I've been doing some interesting things with quinoa lately...
