hope you all had a fabulous Father’s Day weekend.  Did you fire up the grill for burgers and barbecue?  Or did you visit dad’s favorite restaurant and participate in his favorite activities?  My family drove up to Yountville and St. Helena Saturday for brunch and much-enjoyed quality time with my husband, my parents, [...]]]>

remember ever craving crab.  I’ve eaten it all my life.  I even remember eating talangka (ta-lang-kah), tiny shore crab–whose bodies don’t get much bigger than a silver dollar–during my short time in the Philippines.  If I remember correctly, they’re prized not for their meat but for their fat.  Crab fat is a [...]]]>

first real trip (and last) to Mexico was in 2006.  After celebrating the wedding of good friends in Ireland, my husband and I flew home and stayed just long enough, about 36 hours, to unpack, do the laundry, pack again and take off for warmer weather.  We reconnected with our just-married friends south [...]]]>

take to my family’s Easter gathering is now setting in the refrigerator.  There will be plenty of time in the morning for the finishing touches, before Easter service then heading to my aunt’s home.

http://lemonsandanchovies.com/?p=15640   It was going to be a lunch for one.  Because I decided to pop in to the office for an hour or two to finish some work (I don’t normally work Thursdays), my husband spent the bulk of the day with one of his buddies.  By the time  my weekend officially started at 1 [...]]]> http://lemonsandanchovies.com/2013/03/peppery-spring-salad/feed/ 23

home by having steak with my girlfriends Friday night and a burger with other friends Saturday night.  By the time Sunday rolled around I was ready for something a [...]]]>
