One of our long-time favorite
recipes is “Nachos Sauce” from Molly Katzen’s Moosewood Cookbook, originally
published in 1974. We make a big pot of this without the cheese, divide it into
containers, and freeze it, adding the cheese when we reheat it to eat over rice
and vegetables. It makes a great dinner.
You may be wondering why I am talking about this old recipe. One of the key ingredients is beer. Since we plan to prepare a batch of Nachos Sauce this week, Barry added a 6-pack of Corona to our Whole Foods order. The delivery man knocked on the door and informed Barry that he would need to see a valid ID before he could leave the beer. All I can say is that Barry was quite flattered that his thinning gray hair was not sufficient to prove he is old enough to buy alcoholic beverages!
Meanwhile, we finally had a chance to return, albeit briefly, to the New York Botanical Garden. The storms this area experienced a couple of days ago did some damage to some of the trees, and as a result our favorite area, the Native Plant Garden, was not open. The Native Plant Garden first opened to the public in 2013, the year after the Monet exhibit that we had visited so many times while I was undergoing treatment for the primary CNS lymphoma. We hope to get back soon to be able to return to the Native Plant Garden. But meanwhile I did try to take a few pictures of some of the other areas we visited.
Hope you are all well and keeping your spirits up. It is no easy feat these days.
Love,
Rebecca
