    Dinner party at my place tonight. One of the guests is pregnant so doesn't want to eat anything not thoroughly cooked, not even salad. Starting with Acorda Alentjana (Portuguese bread and garlic soup), then air fryer drumsticks in Korean fried chicken sauce, roast cherry tomatoes, garlic stir fried peas. Dessert will be cherry clafoutis. If we are still hungry I've got some homemade coffee granita and chocolate sorbet in the freezer.

    Just FYI...I absolutely LOVE seeing/reading about what you prepare/eat daily. Thank you so much for taking the time to post your meals. Seeing what you are eating is not only an inspiration but quite frankly, delightful to/for me. ALSO is helping/giving me ideas ("broadening my "horizons", so to speak) for my future meals. So, YAY you!

    Larb Gai. I used David Thomson's recipe, but this one which evolved out of David Thompson is pretty close.

    Have not been cooking much since so hot.
    But few nights ago did a few amazing meals.


    Mushroom soup marinated Pork Chops with salted cheese curds on BBQ
    Corn on cob done in tin foil on BBQ & simple salad

    *b/f had cut up ham for protein
    Hand breaded zuchinni sticks
    Corn in tin foil
    Salad

    Last night we got home late and were both in bad moods so picked up 4 Nana's kitchen chicken butter samosa.
    Only ate one each and I made a salad.

    Tonight will probably be leftover samosa and pasta/salad. Clear out fridge since we just went shopping.

    Dinner party at my place tonight and will do my standard company menu. Air fried chicken wings in three sauces. A Vietnamese caramel/anchovy sauce, Korean fried chicken sauce, classic buffalo. Thai grapefruit salad as pomelo is out of season with peanuts, mint, coriander, basil, toasted coconut and dried shrimp powder. Sticky rice. Strawberry clafoutis baked in the air fryer because it is too warm to have the oven on.

    My dinner was a cilantro-lime marinated chicken breast with avocado salsa, grilled potatoes and side salad. It was great! A bit on the high on the calories vs what I usually have, but still good at 486, and so filling! Yum
