When plating gets out of hand. It was delicious, though. Pan-seared salmon dusted with lemon zest, SV asparagus, greens (yup, still with the greens), and lemon tarragon aioli. Not shown but extra tasty were the thin trimmed bits of the salmon - crispy on the outside with that juicy fat layer just beneath the surface. mmmmmm....... #littlehands wasn't impressed with the skin or the greens (at least she tries them every time), but finished everything else!
Happy Valentine's Day, y'all! So lucky to have these sweethearts in my life. 😍💕
Gotta say, my steak game was on point! Swipe over to see how well #littlesthands and #Zoedog are getting along. 😃 Funny story to this: Z was behind us with the bone and when D walked around the couch and toward her I looked over to supervise. -I have zero concern about Z with the kids, even when a steak bone is involved. She'll "snap" as a warning but she's never used her teeth on anybody. I was just curious as to what D was planning to do.- So Z "snapped" at the kid when she got too close, making her cry, but 2 seconds later she reached over and grabbed the bone right out of Z's mouth, stood up, and walked back to us with it, with Z following right behind her. Brave little girl! They made nice, as you can see. 😱 😂
Our first daddy-daughter dance! The theme was Enchanted Forest, and SO well done, huge thanks and props to the Maclay Parent Organization for putting this together! Lots of love in the room, and some hard, level-up moments for me. I could see S growing up right before my eyes thru the age progression of all the other little girls there (preK3-5th grade, I think). We had a wonderful time! 😍 #wannadancedaddy? 😍
I prob should've added this to the last one, but whatever. Same basic meal (pan-fried cod, brown rice, carrots, greens), but totally different flavor with a garlic #balsamic butter sauce instead of the citrus notes. Delicious both ways, variety just keeps it interesting.
#FishNight! This has been a go-to meal during the week, so I've prob shown something similar. Breaded pan-fried fish (here #cod), brown rice (made with the zest from that lime), steamed carrots, batch #greens (I make these on weekends and reheat as needed, goes well with everything!). Also a salad with grapefruit vinaigrette I made with local citrus! Aside from the pan-fry part, totally healthy! So... healthy-ish?
