This was another weekend without interruption. We relaxed at home, caught up on the mountain of laundry that has taken up residence in our bedroom, and I cooked - a lot. Friday night there were salmon burgers and sweet potato fries. Leftover fries became sweet potato homefries for brunch with eggs and bacon. After my weekend errands, I roasted some red peppers (so much easier under the broiler rather than on the gas range!) and tested a Moroccan spiced red pepper salsa for the
Food52 weekly contest. We served it with some spiced meatballs and a fennel couscous salad. Early on Sunday, before the heat settled in, (its going to be in the nineties all week!) I made a thin skillet cornbread (I have plans for this cornbread, look out later in the week) and banana bread laced with hunks of dark chocolate. Really you should try it, its fabulous. Later in the afternoon we went to Providence, and when we decided it was much too hot in the city we took ourselves to a late lunch in Newport. It wasn't anything fancy by any means, a burger made with green onions and Boursin (mine) and some Cajun chicken (the man's) accompanied by some local beer and possibly the best french fries I've eaten since high school. Later at home, we watched television parked in front of the fan, sipping wine. It was the perfect end to a very relaxing weekend.
