It is a simple thing to make lobster salad. Take the meat from the shells (a chef’s knife is all that is necessary) and chop, add homemade mayonnaise, celery, lemon and season to taste.

This was the patio garden last July. My sweet dogs and I sat there in the sun with a cup of tea in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. It was a bright spot in an otherwise dreadful year.

William

We adopted William in November of 2018. He has taken a great deal of work because he is a spook and at first was afraid of everything. His racing name was “Slick Willy” which doesn’t suit him at all. He is a very reserved and very courtly fellow, the sweetest lad you could meet.

We adopted sweet Rose in April this year. She came from a racing kennel in Florida. What a character!

Tempura is such a pretty, delicate dish. Replacing some of the water with vodka reduces the formation of gluten and ensures a crispy coating.

This is the pool garden in July two years after the pool was filled in, definitely weedy and wild but pretty. I just let it go this summer. It was a miserably hot, humid and perversely dry year. I was reeling from the loss of my sweet Bean dog and the fifteen months of stress … Continue reading "The Pool Garden"
