A Meal with an Old Friend

Baby Spinach Salad with goat’s cheese and red onion, drizzled with Lemon Vinaigrette
Pork Tenderloin stuffed with cranberries, walnuts, caramelized onions and old cheddar
Curried Rice
Asparagus
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Followed by
Ooops I Forgot Dessert
Three Bottles of Wine
And Lashings of "Why Did I Stay Up ‘Till Two?"


Our old friend, the one that introduced G-Pup and I almost 19 years ago, was in town from Canada's Cowboy Capital. We stayed up way to0 late for a Thursday night. Here's some pictures.

What a delicious looking feast! And the company's not too shabby, either! Wish I had been there, too.

Looks like a great evening. It's nice when time slips away from you in the company of an old friend.
Your home looks lovely and full of character(s). Jersey? is gorgeous!

Mme le (la) Chef, Chez Pup,

When you've a chance, can you say which dressing recipe used (or perhaps you adapted from something?) I'm knee-deep in walnuts, cranberries, & onions...could use this way. Scads of recipes for similar but would rather use what you already have tried. Thanks so much.
