Seafood and mushrooms make a quick visit.....
While Marc takes a weekend to golf with the boys in Palm Springs (still don't get the golf in 110 degree weather in August thing), I decided to do the unthinkable - cook some seafood and mushrooms. One of my favorite dishes of all time to make is this Seared Salmon with Shitakes and Roasted Corn recipe from Danny Meyer's Union Square Cafe cookbook. Since Marc detests most of the main ingredients (seafood and mushrooms), I decided to make it for my friends and host a Girls Night. Sinead, Rebecca, Maura, Maureen and Robyn all came over, and we all had lots of laughs.... some until 2:30am. Good food, good wine, good laughs and great people - not much more to ask for.
Also was able to spend some time golfing on Thursday afternoon at a private course my friend Chris belongs to - TPC at Snoqualmie Ridge. Another friend of ours, also named Jill, joined us for the round. It was a ton of fun and as Marc always says, no matter how bad the round - any day on the golf course is better than a day at work. The rough was pretty thick as they are hosting a Champions Tour event there during the upcoming week. Lost a lot of balls, but we had a lot of laughs along the way. Hopefully my game was not so pitiful that Chris will invite us back since Marc has never played there.
