I went to a lovely party yesterday and managed to resist this gorgeous looking blue berry pie with lovely melted ice cream. Pretty proud of myself for that, although I would be lying if I said it super difficult, it wasn't really, not anymore.. but the frosty looking beers were another story.
I also made a super scrumptious salad which is great in the summer, and easy to transport.
I marinated asparagus in olive oil and salt, and then grilled on a high heat for a few minutes so that the outside was softer but the inside was still nice and crsip, probably 4 minutes in all. Boiled some shelled edamame, added it to the asparagus, along with more salt and pepper and 20 or so fresh mint leaves, along with a squeeze of lime and one lime's zest and then placed it in the fridge to chill and finally topped it off with slices of Parmigiano Reggiano. It was scrumptious.
