🍽️🍜 the last bit of cooking I'm going to do for a few days: grilled NY strip with salt, pepper, and some Penzey's Chicago Steak seasoning, and creamed spinach with garlic and sherry.

Something unexpected happened at the @meidascanada.ca town hall in Victoria. A group of young Afghan girls who escaped the Taliban showed up and asked to speak. They told their story of the fight for education and the need for Canada to help. We will be sharing their story. @meidastouch.com

Tonight I prepared my first meal kit from Home Chef food delivery service: Sheet Pan Spice Caramel Trout with cauliflower. It was very easy to prepare and very delicious. Looking forward to six more meals this week.

We enjoyed these Golden Delicious apples, which were grown in our back yard.
