Lori worked her tail off all day yesterday and boy did it pay off. The dinner was amazing but the cheesecake was so good and unlike anything any of us have ever had that it could have won an award. It was a cross between a soufflé and a traditional cheesecake as it was so light and airy with a texture unlike anything you’ve ever had. She improvised on a recipe and whatever she did had everyone in awe. She topped it off with fresh berries and a huckleberry sauce she somehow made. Again, she started with a Basque (from Northern Spain) recipe and then modified it using I think some almond paste and tapioca flour and less sugar so it was also gluten free but you would have never known. I told her she needs to start making it commercially. On top of that, she made short ribs with a homemade rub that were the best any of us had ever had. Throw in truffle burgers with all the trimmings, bison brats, a cucumber and tomato and basil salad, grilled corn on the cob with enchilada sauce and fresh cornbread and we had an amazing meal.
Earlier Ty went to a graduation party at the pavilion in Eagle Vail. Marty, Melanie and Max picked him up on the way to our house. They stayed until about 7 as Melanie and Max had to drive to the Westin at the Denver airport for flights to Pittsburg and Texas this morning.
Then the Av’s demolished the Vegas Knights. Vegas played a dirty game but it didn’t matter, we won 7 to1. Not sure what’s up today. Tomorrow we’re back at it, June 1st! Ty’s last day is this coming Thursday.
Lori is out in the living room with the dogs. Think she’s been up for 45 minutes or so. Time to go. Happy Memorial Day, thank a vet for your freedom and for their service. Too many take things for granted these days. Some dems and misguided people want to cancel Memorial Day as they say it’s a holiday of oppression by the U.S. government, what the fuck? Guess they’d rather be living under Hitler and his regime. What they apparently don’t realize is if it wasn’t for the veterans they wouldn’t even be able to voice such idiotic thoughts, good God. Wish all those so unhappy with our Country would move to China or something. Oh well, the silent majority has almost had enough. God Bless.
