MENU FOR THE WEEK OF MARCH 4, 2013

I took a nasty fall last weekend and as a result, have had limited use of my right arm.  Needless to say, I wasn't able to cook and Warner has had to step up to the bat – so to say.  He’s been exceedingly good natured about it all given the fact that normally the only two things he wants to know about dinner is (1) what time it is and (2) what wine should he serve.

As such, we've eased up on things a bit to take it easy on him.  But I really do have to comment about his statement that he just wants to keep things simple.  This from the Pickle Prince of Pomona, the Chairman of Charcuterie, the Mogul of Marmalades of Many Flavors, the King of the Stock  Shop, the High Priest of Ganach….Simple indeed!
