Aug. 7 dinner (with Sevin Koont)
Bob's special borscht (beets, potatoes, herbs, brown sugar, lemon juice, yogurt. Scallions and cucumber added after it's cooked. Hard-cooked egg slices and more yogurt (Greek-style) at the table.
Also kasha and kasha varniskes (the second being kasha and bowtie noodles); Bob wanted to make both. Then perfect Ranier cherries that Sevin brought (with lovely pale-yellow flesh) and watermelon that passed muster with Sevin, who is Turkish and thinks watermelon should taste as good as it did in Turkey.

Daily diet August 2008
Folks,
I'm going back to keeping track of what and how I eat. Bob and I have such varied meals, and we are always making things off the top of our heads. It will be good to have a place to check back on how we did things.
