Sun, Aug 10 - Tomato Heaven

11.42am - the fruit Nadya brought yesterday, from her garden, all washed and ready to eat. What a treat! Thanks, Nady!!
11.46am - leftover cheesecake, mango, red currants, and the crowning glory, one of Nady's huge and succulent figs...
12.36h - leftover mache, and Nady's incredible cherry tomatoes. So sweet and flavorful, they don't need any dressing. At home, with Ritesh.
12.39h - leftover roasted chicken, potatoes and fennel, at home, with Ritesh
14.57h - tried a new dairy free bread recipe, in honor of the tomatoes. With tomatoes of this caliber, you really don't need very much at all, but they're perfect on some nice buttered bread, with some salt and pepper. This bread turned out nice, but the recipe asked to split the dough into two halves, and the resulting two loaves were just too small - check out the tiny slices compared to Nady's tomatoes! So no open-faced buttered sandwich... instead, just some olive oil for dipping, salt and pepper. Perfect.
16.13h - fresh squeezed OJ from Nady's oranges, at home
18.56h - Ritesh was feeling a little under the weather and wanted soup at Pho99. These are our usual appetizer egg rolls...
19h - and here's the veggie pho, at Pho99
