The salmon turned out wonderful along with the side dishes. I gotta say, there is nothing like fresh, caught fish! Yummy! I brought a lovely Pinot Noir to accompany the fish, but of course we finished the bottle BEFORE we even ate the fish! My dessert turned out a total disaster. NOTE to all bakers out there: NEVER use a cake pan that's not the right size for what the directions call for. This recipe was an orange bittersweet chocolate cake made with no flour to be made in an 8" springform pan. Well people, there were no 8" springform pans to be found! The 9" didn't work. Instead of my "cake" looking like a "cake" it looked like a chocolate PANCAKE! Anyway, Tom loved it but he upped my dessert and had made some home made butter pecan ice cream. More Yummy!
While waiting for the salmon to cook, we discussed lots of things and we reached an agreement that we will remain friends (with benefits) and we both think it's a good arrangement. He's actually tired of the dating scene (ahem) and being enthralled with him and gullible at the same time, I believe him. So we have become Friday buddies.
Back to my place, some more wine and lots of cuddles and kisses......
Next day: on the way back from walking my dog, I found a woman slouched over on the floor of the elevator. I rushed up back to my friend; he ran to the elevator and I called 911. The paramedics were there in no time and luckily the lady was breathing and moving around, but it was pretty scary, for sure. We don't know the outcome, but I'm sure she is in good care now.
I made breakfast, we read the papers (like two old married people) and watched a little t.v. and cuddled. He's returning next Friday for some of my Chicken Putanesca.
It was a glorious Friday night, Saturday morning. AM I DREAMING? If I am, please DON'T wake me up!
