Great Easter dinner.... Good food good wine and a good time was had by
all. Didn't stress over preparing the food. We had lamb, "dirty"
mashed potatoes, roasted broccoli and stuffed mushrooms with
strawberry shortcake for dessert.

The lamb was really, really good - hubby couldn't stop saying how much
he liked it (and he's not a lamb lover). I used the usual EVOO, fresh
garlic, fresh rosemary and threw in some dried oregano, but, I think
what turned the corner was the preserved lemon. I minced it up very
finely, combined it with everything else and let the lamb marinade in
the mixture for a couple of hours before I grilled it.

My new favorite wine is Grenache (red). My son in law brought grenache
for my birthday last month and another one today - different
vineyards, equally awesome... both from Santa Barbara county.

Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.
