I must say that I have not been alone or lonely during the long weekend my husband was out of town for a family funeral. The first night I sat in for an ill guest at a dinner party. Saturday was quiet. Today I’ve a luncheon turned overnight guest who is visiting to perform in town. I still miss Jim but he’ll be back tomorrow night and will need to de-compress and rest after being a pallbearer outdoors in 104 degree weather and dealing with family and all the sadness that surrounds such an occasion.
On a warm day, I didn’t want to heat up the oven so didn’t make salmon en papillote. I microwaved it in an old recipe of my mother’s, and served it with couscous and sauteed asparagus and cherry tomatoes. It was light and tasty and a treat for me to cook at home as my husband is allergic to anything that swims.
Then dinner, our guest is staying over so I had two small chicken breast “cutlets” that I breaded and served with cherry tomatoes, a German cucumber salad and sliced avocado. Tired now, so will get you recipes tomorrow. Sorry! Dee
