Sunday night blahs after a nice outing

In spite of the fact that the only hits on the blog I'm getting are from zombie sites, I continue to do this.

I went with my friend Kathy to the Mission Restaurant today in Syracuse.  Our behind the scenes tour of the new exhibit at the Everson Museum with the curator through the Arts and Crafts Society of Central New York was cancelled but we decided to go for brunch and visit the museum anyway.  The restaurant is really charming - it's in a old church that was once part of the underground railroad.  The food was good but there was too much
 cumin in the huevos rancheros for my taste.  The quesadillas were delicious.

The exhibit is really wonderful - definitely go if you love arts and crafts (Gustav Stickley) furniture, period clothing and amazing pottery from the early 20th century.









 I have the Sunday night blahs but since I need to eat I am heating up some chicken riggies that I got from Emilio's, roasting an organic tomato with Parmesan and fresh basil and parsley from the garden, and asparagus with a sprinkling of garlic, sea salt and pepper. For someone who couldn't tolerate asparagus as a child, I've been eating an inordinate amount of it once I discovered roasting it instead of boiling it until it was a mushy mess - oh the 50's.

I added chopped onion, parsley and some hot peppers to the riggies to spice it up.

Here it is, all ready to go in the oven and the microwave. 

 It's a good dinner but I still have the blahs.
