Kung Pao Chili and Rib Eye Steaks

3 June, 2023

Dear A_:

“'tis impossible he should; cannot creep into a
halfpenny purse, nor into a pepper-box.”
- Shakespeare

But, A_, I've kept all three bottles of your past and present gifts of homegrown chilies!

Of course, thanks for the delights of your gardens. I had the fresh zucchini last night for supper. Pan fried in Granoloa oil, and with a dash of garlic. It was delicious! As for the basil and rosemary sprigs, they are being air dry. And for the Kung Pao chili, I have plans for its use, too.

L'

p.s. I most likely would be shopping for a rib eye steak and thinking of smothering it with the Kung Pao chili after it is cooked. Francis Ford would probably be "horn-mad" what I proposed to do with the meat.
