New Frying Pan and Other Friday Thoughts

 Lamb Chops

Len bought a new, heavy frying pan, and tried it out on some lamb chops.
The recipe was from the New York Times:
"Seared Lamb Chops With Anchovies, Capers and Sage" by Melissa Clark




The chops were simply delicious!

Over-Easy Eggs

For breakfast the frying pan produced lovely over-easy eggs with toasted English muffins.


In the News: The President of Mexico

In the Guardian: a long read about the President of Mexico (link).


Besides politics, the article described the beautiful clothing of Mexico’s President (right).
The photos reminded me of Frida Kalho and her special style — in left image.

“Claudia Sheinbaum’s clothing – tailored from modest fabrics produced in Mexico and featuring Indigenous motifs – is one of the many ways that her administration communicates its slogan: ‘For the good of all, first the poor.’”


Some Postcards I received this week

Thanks to Evelyn who is traveling in the West.

  1. I love lamb, but I've never cooked it for myself. I'm worried that I won't cook it properly and that will weaken my love for it.

  3. Do people send you postcards or do you order them? I love the National Parks series that card from Arches is from.

  4. I love to get postcards from people traveling, and I love to send them. I will visit Arches one day. I've never made lamb or friend eggs (!) but both look excellent. I'm not sure if it is due to the new pan or the cook. Or both!
