That looks um…lovely.

You know, pizza can look really fancy when ordered from the right place.

Neil, I could’ve directed you to a really nice spot to buy that brand of chutney — my husband and I found it and bought it on our honeymoon while on the island of St. Maarten in the Caribbean!

And should you ever decide to “compose” a [fictional] cookbook, I can help you edit it. I helped edit a very successful school fundraiser cookbook…while my husband was on the recipe tester committee. (that doesn’t mean that he just ate the recipes that were prepared; he helped prepare many recipes.) Hey, maybe I should send him your way — he cooks and bakes, too!

I love how in spite of a tense back your imagination is alive and well (send clean panties only?!?) Heh

Bravo, Neil! Salmon looks yummy. The peas, too. Next time, don’t start cooking the peas until everything else is ready–take ‘em out when still green. Great job! Hope Sophia’s resting and comfortable.

By the way, I'm very disappointed that I can't attend LA Daddy's big LA Blogger Party. If you live in the area, you should check it out.

Sophia told me that I should go, but what kind of jerk would I look like to you, leaving my sick wife at home, especially after I scored so many points with the ladies from sleeping on the floor.

Yeah, my back is a little tense from sleeping on the floor again last night. I just wanted to bring that up. Please send clean panties only.

(Sophia reminded me that I only slept on the floor half the night before I caved in and went into bed)

Ms. Syl, yes I did put a dollop of chutney on top for aesthetic reasons. I’ve noticed how beautifully sushi is presented in Japanese restaurants! (and also Sophia told me to do it for the photograph)

I need to learn how to photograph food to make it look even better than it is.

Now, what should I make next? Sophia doesn’t eat pork or shellfish. She prefers fish and beef/lamb over chicken, and she loves vegetables. I have no idea why she puts her nose up at chicken. Who doesn’t love chicken?

She also likes things spicy, saucy, and exotic — which is exactly how I describe her. But I’m not sure how well that goes with “simple.”

You cook like my hubby … but, I give you a big A for effort!! Hope that Sophia is healing well and that you’re hanging in there (caretakers are the silent heroes). Much peace & love, JP
