Sunday Joys


There are few things that I enjoy better than hanging out at the house on Sunday and cooking.

A nice espresso to start with. It never fails the moment you are ready to sit down. Niko, our cat, thinks it is hysterical to jump in your seat. I suppose that he thinks one day we will fix him a plate.
For lunch, crab cake sandwiches. We love crab cakes and trying out different recipes. This one came from "Fine Cooking" -the magazine July 2009. Salt and Pepper potato chips. Chris loves these- although he bought the crinkle cut by mistake.


For dinner, out of the same magazine, we had these barbecue-braised country spareribs with beer and mustard glaze. I was a little nervous, we are not really huge mustard fans. But they were very good, only a hint of mustard, and nice and juicy.

Obviously, there were plenty of leftovers here so Monday night I chopped up the rest and made some enchilada sauce. I think they were even better as a pork enchilada recreation. This was Chris' idea- usually I do chicken, but these were a good call.
