Sunset from the front porch this afta looking towards Charlestown with McArdle Bridge in the foreground, Mystic River Bridge approach in the middle ground and Bunker Hill monument beyond, stage left.
"Where the blue of the night Meets the gold of the day Someone waits for me." Sigh.
A faint whiff of romance -- the way to a man's heart and all that -- was in the air as Tuck tasted our latest Cold Turkey Cookbook offering, Pork Stir Fry, this evening and declared "Whipple. This is exceptional."
Pork Stir Fry with Corny Cornbread minimuffin stoked the fires of romance this evening.
Pork Stir Fry
Slice and dice one pork tenderloin, garlic, leeks and mushrooms. Cut off ends of sugar snap peas. Heat sesame oil in frying pan or wok and cook pork briefly till it loses the pink, grinding a little pepper over all to taste.
Remove pork from pan and set aside. Add a little more oil to the pan and cook the veggies till soft. Add 1/3 cup red vermouth and 1/3 cup soy sauce and continue cooking till liquid becomes syrupy.
Return pork to pan, reheat briefly and serve on a bed of perfect rice.
This IS exceptional.
Food fit for royalty and the Pats made it 18 straight wins for a new record.

Wow - 2 exceptionally lovely pictures. The view from your porch is excellent and the food... looks outstanding! I'll have to give this recipe a try. Yum!
We had pork too - pork chops in the slow cooker... very very tender. Make a gravy from the juice - cook some rice add a salad and viola! Just the kind of lovely comfort food for a cold winter evening while football is on. *grin*
