What's for Dinner?

[Lamplighter]

My G-son, Sam, just caught tonight's dinner... this chinook on the Deschutes

Delicious meals all around.

I don't often participate in these threads, but will now.

Last night we had some leftover cold pasta salad. Bowties with a sort of pesto sauce mixed with bits of radicchio and kalamata olives. A huge salad on the side, and some cut up deliciously ripe pineapple. Tall glass of milk. The pineapple and milk pairing was a little weird, but everything else worked well together.

How many of there are you? Get a coupla loaves and that will feed the 5,000. Glad he's doing so well.

It does all sound great Glatt, but it made me smile for a slightly dufferent reason.

The younger partners I work with have generally never moved out of Aylesbury. They are on a steeper learning curve than me. I cannot claim to be a foodie but if you move around and stick around for 40+ years you pick up a lot. and I don't mean things that require antibiotics.

Last week a partner and a customer had the beginnings of a conversation headed in separate directions. The customer wanted to know if we sold kalamata olives. My cow-orker was trying to direct her to the fish counter to buy calimari. I stepped in like Wonder Woman (but without the short-shorts) and walked her down the prepacked deli aisle, where indeed we do sell kalamata olives.

I promise I wasn't smug. I'd never even eaten an olive when I was his age.
