hot.
this is how I dream of summer in February.
besides, it gives reason to laziness.
particularly under big, shady trees.
hopefully with a summer breeze.
hot means no dinners in the oven.
last weekend I made an olive oil sauce, which I have eaten all week.
pasta, chicken, peppers, tomatoes, bread, eggs – any and all of these combinations.
it is simple and absolutely delicious, olive oil & spice:
the STUFF
¼ cup olive oil
3-4 cloves garlic
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp blue basil (or regular)
1 tsp bay leaf (crushed)
1 tsp black pepper
½ tsp thyme
½ tsp red pepper
¼ tsp sea salt (or regular)
