I made this salad on 4th of July – it’s from Plenty<\/a>, the cookbook from London’s trendiest deli, Ottolenghi. Grilled zucchini, basil leaves, toasted hazelnuts, shaves of Parmesan, olive oil. It was really good freshly made, but I took the leftovers for lunch and the basil tasted like soap – I just closed up the container & chucked it down the disposal when I got home. Coulda gone in the compost, just didn’t.<\/p>\n

I also grilled a pork roast, and some potatoes, and we ate them to Steve’s<\/a> special 4th of July mix, that he brought over on his iPod.<\/p>\n

We watched Another Earth<\/a>, to work up an appetite for pie & ice cream – it was rhubarb peach, pictures soon. [well, I never did take the pictures; I thought they;d just look too much like every other pie picture … it was a good enough pie, but maybe a tad too tart, and the crust was a little too short – I threw in not only butter and vegetable shortening, but a little square of cream cheese lurking in the dairy bin in the fridge, too] None of us liked the actor who played the bereaved dad, but now that I look at his IMDB entry<\/a>, I think it’s because he just wasn’t suited to playing the character he was – a guy with a wife & kid and music faculty at a big university – he’s better in other roles; he’s been in a bunch of TV cop shows, Lost, and horror movies<\/a>.<\/p>\n
