eat make read

Last night was a real test. Normally I certainly would have eaten out because we had an outdoor concert to go to (woohoo!), but I diligently came home and got dinner started. I wanted to make something portable that I could take with us, so I made hamburgers with carmelized onions and sweet potatoes with thyme. The meat from the market is so good, it hardly needs any dressing, but I couldn’t resist using some of my red onions to make a simple but super delicious topping. For the potatoes I just thinly sliced a sweet potato and sauteed it until it had a nice brown crispiness to it.

After everything was done, I pulled out my tin foil and wrapped it up to take to the show. Excellent plan! Even after a 30 minute walk the meal was a warm and delightful backdrop to the lovely melodies of Feist. I think I need more picnics in my life.
