TV dinner

I can't remember the last time I ate dinner on front of the TV. After wine and a few nuts (my latest fascination is with roasted, salted nuts made in a cast-iron skillet), we eat dinner without television.

But that doesn't take into account a playoff game

and the finale of Project Runway

on the same night. So I loaded up a big tray, poured the wine and water, took big napkins, and settled in. Nothing was disappointing, though flipping back and forth between the two with a fork in one hand and a glass in the other took a whole new skill.
