My friend Abbi had a birthday on Saturday, so Tracy and I invited her over to dinner. I tried to make dinner from my Pike's Basket. I used the salad greens for a salad with cranberries, walnuts and blue cheese chunks. Then I took the fresh onions and asparagus, along with peppers and zucchini, and marinated them for grilling. I also used the fresh oregano in a marinade for the chicken. Then I put some baby potatoes on a skewer.
For dessert, I used the rhubarb, strawberries, and mint in a fruit crisp... with minced ginger. It was good. We sat in the back yard with our torches and watched the sunset over the sound. Benson hung out with us too. Here is a before and after photo of the sunset. It was a wonderful night.
