Well, the 2 Cooks ate pretty well this week!

We've got Lemon tarts with a Lemongrass Italian Meringue, Pad Thai, Asian Chicken Wings, Aloco which is an African dish with Cod, Sweet and Sour Meatballs, Salmon with Mashers and Tomatoes with cottage cheese and pesto.

Lots of really good dishes made right here in our kitchen. Some things Matthew made, some things Kelly made and some things had contributions from both of us.

21 cups of really rich chicken broth heading to the freezer. Three chicken carcasses from roasted chickens cooked for at least 24 hours with the Trinity of onion, celery and carrots. Whenever a recipe calls for broth we've got it. You can see how rich and thick it is. Also..we love the Souper Cubes. We have both 1 cup and 1/2 cup.

Picture from this day 5 years ago shows one of the best pairings ever--oysters and vodka. Trust us on this. You can either do it yourself or order in a restaurant. Here is a beautiful platter of petites that Kelly shucked and we ate in the sun on our deck. It's a task with great benefits. We are lucky to live by Humboldt Bay where they farm these beauties. More than likely that vodka is some Humboldt Distillery also a local and quality product.

It's totally stuffed pepper season. This one is shrimp and cheeses over a Sweet Paprika sauce and some spicy home made salsa on top. We love poblanos and this year they are thick and meaty.

His and Hers stuffed poblanos.

Inside is spicy sausage with 3 cheeses. On the side is a lovely veg blend and his plate has a bit of home made (and grown) tomato and chile salsa. All this on top of some Molé Negro. It was a lot to eat but we managed.

Delicious pairing! Locally grown Cantaloupe and a nice chilled shot of tequila. Perfect dessert!

Last night Matthew pulled this crab out of the freezer that he secured in order to have with his first SeaHawks game. We bought the live crab in maybe February, can't recall. It's cooked and then frozen in it's entirety in a seal-a-meal situation. He said it was delicious. This is his favorite way to eat it--just pick and suck it out of the shells with some dips in melted butter.
