Sunday Night Dinner

Dinner parties on Sundays are always the greatest--- relaxing end to the weekend and nice prelude to start of a new week.  It's always a pleasure to cook for special occasions and also to dedicate a meal to specific friends.  Meg and Mike are getting married in a few weeks and I wanted to do something fun for them before things got hectic.  4 courses downed, a few bottles of wine kicked, and cool conversation.... need I say more?

Here is a recipe for Candied Olives from Food52.com.  Love these!  Feel free to substitute in Moroccan or your favorite olives.



Poached Shrimp. Avocado Salsa. Cilantro

Yellow Beets. Prosciutto. Goat Cheese. Candied Olives. Pomelo Vinaigrette

Meat 2 ways:
Lamb Kofta. Fennel Coriander Crusted Tri-Tip. Mint Scented Quinoa. Summer Squash. Dill Yogurt  

Chocolate Chip Raspberry Sorbet Sandwiches
