Really good meals today! My daughter is visiting from Hawaii.

Lunch was at a sushi restaurant. I don't know if the various sushi rolls are named the same all over the country or if they are local, but we had a Hawaiian Roll, a Green Monster, and a Punk Lady. Also an order of chicken fried rice. Everything was really good.

For dinner my daughter whipped up something that I don't know the name for. Some popular Puerto Rican dish. The main mix was browned hamburger meat mixed with sauteed onions and pablano peppers. Lots of seasonings, but I can only guess what all she put in there. She found some kind of "garlic grass" ? growing in our garden and put that in there. Cummin, nutmeg, fresh cilantro, cloves - I don't know what else. That meat mixture was served on top of fried and smashed plantains mixed with cassava flour. Topped with some habanero hot sauce. As sides we had a roasted Stokes sweet potatoe and a simple salad of butter lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado. Fantastic dinner! I don't know how my daughter learned how to cook so well - we didn't teach her.
 
I grilled thick cut bbq pork chops for dinner and for dessert we had hot pecan sticky buns and Ice cream.

Abusing one of my Roman cookbooks to make patina Apiciana, which is basically a bunch of leftovers tossed into a wine-and-egg sauce and ladled over flatbread. I have some oat tortillas I made that turned out way too crumbly, so this should work to eat them up, along with the ham, chicken, salmon, and mushrooms I have leftover from the last week. Sounds weird, tastes faboo. I do cut down the wine in the recipe or it is really strong.
 
We had Manwich with curly fries , quick and easy. My daughter has her graduation tomorrow so it was something fast tonight, we will go somewhere nice tomorrow for supper. My baby girl is growing up way too fast, starts CLEMSON in the fall taking AG ED. we are so proud of her as she has finished high school with a 4.834 GPA.
