Tonight\u2019s dinner for one:<\/p>\n
–Lamb sausage with fennel seeds, kalamata olives, artichoke hearts, and feta, seared all nice and golden and shiny in my beloved Wagner 9\u201d cast-iron skillet
\n
–Salad with baby lettuces from last Saturday\u2019s market, shaved fennel, and thinly sliced cukes, dressed with mustard vinaigrette
\n
–Tall Grass Bakery pain au levain
\n
–And for dessert: 85% dark from Paris, along with some honey grahams dipped in milk<\/p>\n
