"because life is too short to eat crappy food"…Yes!Chef!
Well, today is National Watermelon Day. What a coincidence that I happened to make Watermelon Gazpacho yesterday and it is perfectly chilled and ready to eat tonight. It’s quite warm here in the Sierras, so maybe it will help cool us off.
I saw these colorful mini sweet peppers at the store the other day and I wanted to photograph them but I had to come up with some sort of recipe so that Yes! Chef! would make them for me and then I could photograph them. Lo and behold there was a perfectly great recipe right on the back of the bag. I brought them home and waved them in front of Yes! Chef! He said something like, “Yes, they are pretty”. He knows my propensity for Crow Photography (photographing any pretty, shiny or colorful thing that I see), so he wasn’t culinarily very interested. Then I showed him the recipe on the back of the bag and I said things like, “Mmmmm. This looks great” and “I sure do love capers, olives and peppers” and finally, “Could you please make this for me and we could put it on steaks tonight.” That did it.
We Call Him Yes!Chef!
