About 1200 people in Mount Kisco, NY, this morning to protest. A small part of the millions who participated today, but full of energy.

I used up the sauerkraut making choucroute garnie, but I was still in the mood for a reuben. It turns out that kimchi is a REALLY good alternative.

Based on an old NY Times recipe: Monkfish medallions braised in wine and mustard. This is a remarkably easy, reliable, and flexible technique.

Regardless, I can still enjoy cooking.

Scallops poached in white wine with chorizo and leeks.

Because not everything needs to be politics and fear.

Dinner tonight was branzino with eggplant puttanesca.

In the Hudson Valley, it's a cacciatore sort of day.

Should I bore people on bluesky with my cooking pictures as I do on Facebook?

Pan-roasted chicken thighs with sage and mushroom truffle cream sauce.

Here's the funniest unsolicited mail I've received in years.

Blue sky before my eyes.
No messages to be seen:
How restful it is!
