Sunday Pictures

Here's some of what we brought to contribute to the church pot 'providence', yesterday. We have a nice church kitchen with a couple of ovens, so I usually bring dough along, and bake the rolls during the morning service. Yesterday I filled the rolls with pulled pork (and a bit of sauce made from the pan juices, mustard, and a touch of barbeque sauce), and zhuzhed up some shredded carrots with a dressing, the ingredients for which I threw into a bucket as we hurried out the door on Sunday morning. 'Bucket dressing': olive oil, white wine vinegar, garlic (lots...), lemon, sea salt, pepper, red pepper, and brown mustard, oh, and a touch of sweet (honey or maple syrup or agave nectar). I use this type of dressing on most salads. Sometimes I change out the white wine vinegar for red and skip the lemon, or leave out the mustard---though I do really love spicy mustard, so it generally stays...

Olivia played two pieces in a piano recital held in our church sanctuary later in the afternoon. A Bach menuet and a prelude by Chopin. Lovely pieces, beautifully played. It was a very nice time of listening to all of Miss Ana's students (and to Miss Ana, herself).
