Prosciutto Egg Cups. Thin strips of prosciutto layered in a muffin tin, a spoon full of pesto, a small chunk of cheese (fontina is best, this time I used gouda). crack an egg into it, and bake at 375 until whites are done and yolks are still runny. Tastes great, looks seriously spiffy. Gotten from the Waldorf=Astoria Cookbook.

Diet food doesn't have to suck. Here is a fillet mignon topped with a beer reduction and crimini mushrooms, oven fries, and sauteed spinach and garlic. All of this coupled with a nice Chilean table wine. Dieting doesn't actually suck.

As I said, much less interesting stuff after the trip. Back to mundane daily life. On a plus side, the grocery store had cherries for rather cheap. Cherries are one of my single favorite food items, and I am always thrilled to pick up a bunch, and while I am also not much a fan of still life shots, this one turned out pretty nice.
