Thanks to flipflop's generosity from the last growing day of the season, chicken with Thai basil. Some hot peppers and onions going in the wok as well.

13-15 CT shrimp, butterflied and stuffed with a Lake Pontchartrain crab dressing, roasted on a bed of fresh asparagus and covered with a fresh Hollandaise sauce. Rich as hell, but the most delicious dish I've cooked in a long time and the first time I've made it since we left New Orleans.

Sounds so good. A pailful to Brian and his spouse might ease their suffering.

Taught my son that it's not a good idea to stuff yourself with food that rich, no matter how good it tastes. He was pretty miserable for a couple of hours after.

Roasted butternut squash soup with croutons and a drizzle of good olive oil on top.

Perfect for a rainy, chilly night's supper.

I cheated and used salad croutons because I didn't have any leftover bread to make my own

Soup here as well tonight... Homemade chicken broth providing the base for added vegetables, rice and oven roasted cherry tomatoes. Simple yet satisfying. A glass of Portuguese Douro red wine on the side helps, too.

Grandpa said he would like some homemade chicken soup. So, homemade chicken soup it is. The aroma in the house is a beautiful thing.
