Salmon & Asparagus

At Spirits in Alexandria. The asparagus was perfect and seasoned so well; I ate every bite. The salmon, however, was too much for me to handle. It was absolutely delicious, but enormous. I felt terribly guitly about being unable to finish such a wonderful piece of meat. Spirits never goes wrong with fish. Their chefs are gifted.

Apple Pie

This was truly a family effort. Mom & Dad each took a turn peeling/slicing the apples. My sister-in-law, Dawn, handled the lattice crust (much to Moma's chagrin - haha) and I made the sauce that was poured over the whole thing. Daddy bought the ice cream that we had on the side. It was absolutely decadent.

Beef Biscuit Cheese Thing

This was also really great. And again, a family effort. I think next time, I'll substitute the peas with broccoli.

Fresh Salsa

This was good, but I think we put in too much cilantro.
