We never go hungry at my parents' house, but we had quite the feast on Saturday night - marinated feta, Cypress Grove's Humboldt fog and salumi started the pre-dinner noshing. Dinner was comprised of grilled ribeyes, roasted new potatoes and a green salad with red onion and red-wine vinaigrette. The crowning touch was my mom's strawberry pie. I am still thinking about it: the crisp, slightly salty crust, the sweet strawberries and a cool dollop of whipped cream to gild the lily. Incredible ... and sad since strawberry season is now over.
I hope you had a great weekend too!
