Anarchy In Washington / Peace At Chez HG/BSK

October 1st, 2013 § 0 comments

Yes, the United States is beginning to resemble the middle east these days as intransigent ideologues seem bent on destroying the government. However, here in the historic Jacona/Pojoauque neighborhood of New Mexico {the site of HG/BSK’s oasis) all is calm and peaceful. With Mozart’s chamber music wafting through the open doors, the fortunate duo strolled their green meadows in the early evening sun, admired the changing colors of the trees while sipping cold New Zealand sauvignon blanc. Dinner was a bow to the middle east. Lamb kefta (grilled cigar shaped patties of ground lamb mixed with onion, mint, cumin, garlic). Couscous. Grilled Japanese eggplant. Khrug (a fiery Yemenite/Israeli condiment). Salad of thinly sliced fennel, radish, baby turnip and parsley (all sourced from the Santa Fe Farmers Market). A bowl of Greek yogurt spiked with crushed garlic, olive oil and Spanish smoked paprika. Drank an Italian red, Salice Santino. Anarchy may be on the way but HG/BSK continue to sustain civilization (at least at the dining table).
