So you may or may not have read a bit about what I've been doing — that should explain my absence to a point. Truth is I've been suffering a bit of arthritis lately, and moving an old man into an old home could motivate a mixture of decay I'm not ready to cope with.
The diet has been good, consistent. Summer berries, tart yogurt, chicken on the barbecue (bought a new grill. Frivolous, sure. Worth it, yes); nothing supremely notable. I do read Gourmet Magazine from time to time — I wish someone would make me these blueberry muffins — and last night I riffed on this recipe to make a delicious and indulgent pork chop.
I subbed provolone for fontina because it was all I had on hand, and it was flavorful to an extreme I was not quite comfortable with. Needless to say I was ready for a good bowl of bran this morning.
