  1. Tonight for dessert I had Mary Ann Espisito's recipe for date bars. I
    decided it was time to get rid of the Medjool dates in my frig. Instead of
    using English Walnuts, I used Almonds. They were darned good (with a glass
    of red wine).

    Dinner was a store-bought ciabatta with ham and turkey and some leaf
    spinach.
    We spent a considerable amount of time before eating slicing and food-saving
    a baked breast of turkey and a really-good ham. The dregs (small pieces)
    were used on the sandwiches, with some dregs left over for tomorrow for ham
    and eggs for breakfast and turkey soup later in the day. The rest went into
    the freezer in the food-saver vacuumed bags.

    We had broiled shoulder lamb chops, Brussels sprouts from the garden,
    pickled beets (AHA!), and for dessert we had a couple of Belgian
    chocolates along with Kona coffee (Smith Farms, natch. Thanks, Cea!)

    The coffee was made in this thing:

    I'm going to have to watch this morning's ATK; as I glanced at it going by
    the TV as I was recording it, it looked like a coffee pot you showed on this
    link. Pretty exciting -- what made you choose this and how long have you
    had it?

    I have collected vac pots for quite awhile and have some very old
    ones dating back to the 1930s. This is my latest eBay acquisition.

    I love the coffee from a vac pot, but none of mine is electric and
    that means they have to be watched. I happen to like the show, with
    the boiling water drawn up into the top globe and doing its "thing"
    with the grounds, so for me it is terrific.

    I have to say that we use such pots on the weekend, when the mornings
    are more relaxed. During the week we use a Chemex.

    The Chemex is really a beautiful piece.
