HUNGRY GERALD

There are many descriptives that can be used for old HG (95 in November, hopefully). One is “well fed”. That’s because HG’s nutrition and enjoyment of lush dinners has become one of BSK’s responsibilities. Happily, no matter how busy or tired BSK is, the wonderful woman daily prepares a tasty breakfast for HG (Smoothie, yogurt enhanced by maple syrup, coffee, sometimes a slice of celestial Babka) and a lush, creative dinner (Fish, shrimp, chicken,pork and tofu; omelets, vegetable pastas–and more, much more). Last night was a good example. BSK sauteed juicy shrimp in a honey and hot pepper glaze–a tongue tingling taste of heat and sweet. This was served with creamy grits and gently steamed baby spinach. Wow!! BSK is also an expert sommelier so there was a bottle of lovely Washington State merlot to drink. Lucky, lucky HG.
