Ugh, with a side of ugh. None of the recipes I tried this week were really Cooking Inside the Lines worthy! Don’t get me wrong they were good, but lambs, I have pretty high standards for what I share with you on this blog and if doesn’t whiz bang wow me then it ain’t making the cut. I shall try again next week and speaking of, here’s the plan.
Sunday: OSCAR PARTY– I’m not going to tell you just yet what we are making because I want to share with our guests first, but if all turns out right I’ll be sure to post here. I’m rooting for Colin Firth (such a poodle), Natalie Portman (such a lamb except she’s spectacularly creepy in Black Swan), Christian Bale (not a huge fan but you can’t deny that his performance in The Fighter was stunning) and it’s a tie for me for Best Picture – either Black Swan or King’s Speech. I’m so torn, I don’t know how my ballot is going to look until Sunday!
Monday:Mahi-Mahi with Tomato, Pepper, and Caper Sauce and Creamy Polenta
Tuesday: Coriander Scallops with Orange-Ginger Dressing
Wednesday: Easy Braised Brisket, Jalapeno Corn Pudding, Grilled Chive Potatoes
Friday (Thursday is kickball baby!): Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Mustard-Dill Sauce and Orzo Salad with Celery, Radishes, and Dill
I hope next week doesn’t lead to another sad panda, I don’t think I can take it.
