I was going to make a steak dinner from Thomas Keller's Ad Hoc cookbook, and we actually found steak at the farmers' market. We bought some fresh basil, cilantro, marble potatoes, rosemary along with cherries, strawberries and blackberries. Rayna keeps yelling "sample, sample"..and stops at all the vendors to get some. We stopped by a gourmet ice-pop stall and also because it was 90 degrees outside. The lady only had "spicy pineapple" and "lemon-basil". I figured it was healthy, so I got it for them. Rayna couldn't believe ice cream could be spicy, she screamed and wanted me to toss it. Inika didn't quite like the taste of lemon-basil, but she had some of it..before Bilal finished it.
Time to cook. The dinner turned out great with steak and marble potatoes. The best was Bilal's pomegranate (fresh from the market), basil martini that totally hit the spot. "Bilalini" We love you baba:)
