| Day 135: On My Mind |
Tomorrow morning, Stephen and I are heading out of town for an overnighter in Mill Valley, the third time we've spent a night away together since our first child was born four and a half years ago. We're staying at a nice
hotel,
riding bikes through the abundant beauty that is Marin County, and trying out some
new restaurants. I am looking forward to this. Very much.

| Day 138: Thai For Two |
Yellow onion, red bell pepper, and tofu simmered in coconut milk and green curry paste. Served over brown rice and topped with fresh cilantro (from the garden!). On the side, cucumber salad: cucumber sliced very thinly (a
mandoline works great for this purpose) and marinated in seasoned rice vinegar for at least one hour. Upon serving, sprinkle the salad with Nori Komi Furikake (pictured below). It's a mixture of sesame seeds, salt, sugar, and seaweed and is labeled as rice seasoning, but works well atop this salad too.

Thank you, Kim, for watching the kiddos while Stephen and I get away for a bit. It really means so very much to us. We know you guys will have fun, but we hope that you will also be able to get some sleep. :)

ReplyDeleteMy favorites: 'Strings'(really, one of the coolest shots I've ever seen from you)and 'Awaiting Kim's Arrival' (sweetness, again.)
Have such a good time Silacks! That thai looks amazing! We make that cucumber salad often, but have yet to try to cook thai. I think we'll try it soon. Looks sooo satisfying!
