teresa lee's suggestion well taken

teri gave me mrs mohler's recipe for crab that prompted me to go buy two ingredients i don't have: mushrooms and sherry.

i wish i could remember the title of the recipe: i'd have googled it to make sure i remembered correctly and got the proportions right. it's something like crab a la baron. but it was wonderful even as i plowed ahead.

here's what i remembered her saying as i was driving down I20 on the last 30 minutes of my return voyage home: saute mushrooms in some butter with onion and maybe a little garlic. (i used
a shallot and a bit of garlic). add crabmeat topped with a little sherry.

that, with a simple romaine and walnut and cheese salad and a glass of dry rose, and i slept like a rock in a couple of hours.

teri, if you read my blog: please do tell me what i may have omitted to make this a better experience.

i didn't go see diana in athens as i had semi-planned, because she was quite busy yesterday.

lovies who read this: i know the ones in africa can't post, but send me news of what's been going on. maybe i can google chat with someone soon.
