Sunday night’s dinner was a celebration for a few of my friends who had just finished the Susan G Koman Walk for the Cure (a 3 day 60 mile event to raise money for breast cancer). Last year when they asked me if I wanted to join them, I respectfully declined and promised to feed them, Reiki them, massage their feet and make them some of my ‘magic oil’ for any other sore muscles.
I broiled a few fresh wild caught Coho fillets with some lemon slices on top and in case they wanted something heavier, I also grilled a tri-tip that I had seasoned with jerk like spices. I can’t remember all we had because we had tons of side dishes- garlic spinach, sauteed asparagus, pasta salad, corn on the cob, fresh green beans with heirloom tomatoes, bruschetta and I can’t remember what else except one of my last bottles of the 2007 Pax Rose.
I won’t however forget how they looked when they arrived, after being feed, or after their foot rubs. Those are the lasting memories of that meal (and the Pax of course).
