Today was rough. Really rough. Miles STOPPED crying three times. Once when he took a nap in the morning, once in the afternoon, and when his mom got home. On top of that, Isla screamed at me about how hungry she was WHILE A DELICIOUS BURRITO was sitting right in front of her, and Miles was red faced and wailing in my ear.
I handed off the grub to Tegan as soon as she walked though the door and transformed into Iron Chef Aaron. It was my mother in law's birthday so I decided to go a little nuts. First, I took my sister's super bitter Radicchio challenge, and made an appetizer by laying the leaves out on baking sheets, firing the oven to 450, drizzling olive oil, grating Parmesan on top and letting it go for about 10 minutes. It was pretty awesome.
Then, onto the grill. Yellow squash, baby zucchini, fennel, onion, and carrot in garlic oil were first. Charred, then cubed and mixed with some more garlic oil and basil. Grilled salad like what! Next the meat went on - 6 sirloins marinated in parsley, garlic and oil. Five minutes on the flame, turn, put a cream cheese, blue cheese, jalepeno, white basalmic, and shallot mixture on top till medium rare. Finish with a nice Cabernet and some grilled pears - sheeeeeeit. It's like the bad day never happened. Until tomorrow, when it starts all over again.
