In a departure from our usual fare, we have rib lamb chops that John sears in a pan on the cooktop and finishes in the oven. They had been in the freezer for over 6 months and it was time to use them. Β I made some asparagus with a little rice and tarragon.
We are currently in a shelter-in-place situation in the SF Bay Area. We are still okay to go to the grocery store and we are thinking of going out some time on Thursday to get supplies. People have been shopping weirdly. All the bags of potatoes were gone from our local market but most of the vegetables were available. Bread was hit pretty hard as well. We have plenty of beans, lentils, and pasta as well as canned goods here at home. Mostly we just need to replace fresh vegetables and fruit. Maybe more people will learn to cook these next three weeks. That would be a silver lining to this catastrophe.
