theatokosTonight will be the first meal cooked in the new apartment. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
alizarin71 is coming over to help Adam sort comic books and as he's such an enthusiastic consumer of my cooking, I plan to keep the praise coming. I pulled a chunk of meat out of the freezer to thaw. It's one of the last from our CSA. Side of pork. I had no idea what that was until I started googling recipes. Turns out it's uncured bacon! This ain't gonna be a low fat meal, folks! Adam and Alizarin's favorite kind.
Here's what I'm going to make:
fried slices of side of pork
white gravy made from the juices (aka, fat)
biscuits
greens
And there's beer in the fridge for the boys.
Now, since I didn't know I was making this until just now I have no time to make biscuits from scratch. Anyone know of a bakery that makes excellent biscuits in the Berkeley/north Oakland area? Otherwise, I'll be buying some bisquick or somesuch.
It feels like ages since I've actually cooked a real meal. I love it so much and miss having the energy for it.
