So, I should have remembered to take a picture of this before we totally devoured it, because it was actually quite pretty. It was a lightly breaded and roasted pork loin, cooked in shallots, sherry and broth with a cream sauce and almonds. Seriously, probably the best thing I've ever cooked. Finally! Some success! And I didn't even burn anything down, which would have been par for the course this month.
By popular demand, I cooked the torte. It was all we dreamed of and more. Strawberries were very good this week, so I could have made the other, but I'm glad we had this, though it is rich as hell and sits in my stomach like a devilish chocolate brick while insisting that I go eat some more, because, after all, it's low carb.
See my seeds? Yeah, I know you do.

yummy dinner and dessert...
what kind of seeds are these, did you ever say? i can't wait to start planting!
4 different kinds of zinnias, dwarf sunflowers, mexican sunflower (tithonia), dahlias, daisies, gomphrena and red marigolds. Bring it!!
Wow! That dessert looks fabulous. And you're going to have one colorful garden! I'm so impressed all around!
Man, that cake makes my stomach growl mournfully. It looks wonderful!
Also, I'm very impressed with your little sprouts. I'm awful at growing anything from seeds, though I do somewhat well with pre-grown potted plants.
