ending the year with a favorite - can of mackerel (thank you Giorgio for the delivery from the co-op!) on fresh 7grain mini loaf from Pain d'Avignon with a little mayo, cucumber, cornichon and fennel top; along with a salad of butter lettuce, fennel and jalepeño - so good
some very good leftovers - roasted sockeye salmon with a chili mayo and fennel tops, baby red potatoes with parsley and a spinach and fennel salad, sea salt and the 7 grain bread from Pain d'Avignon
