The intent of my 8AM dash to Safeway<\/a> for some household staples yielded a lovely surprise for dinner – Dungeness Crab, from Canada! As I cruised by the fish counter, these beautiful red crabs stopped me in my tracks. Fishmonger Jim asked me if I wanted to taste some. I did – delicious! This led to the purchase of one of our favorite Chardonnays, Rodney Strong<\/a> Chalk Hill. With one artichoke left from our recent visit to Pezzini’s<\/a> in Castroville (wonderful market) and the best radishes I have ever tasted plucked that morning from the\u00a0 Ferry Plaza Farmer’s Market<\/a>, we were set for our Saturday Night Live dinner. Happily, I had some brown rice left over from a recent visit to a Chinese restaurant which worked as the perfect accompaniment to this meal. Luscious red grapes from Tory Farms (also purchased at the Farmer’s Market that morning) were served with Carr’s<\/a> Whole Wheat Crackers topped with Aged Gouda and toasted walnuts drizzled with honey for a simple, sweet dessert.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
