Re: (...)
What's on the menu for today?? We were going to drive around Scottsdale, but the weather is so great, neither one of us wants to spend the day in a truck!! So, I think I'll finally get my grilled steak and use some of my 'herb garden' rosemary for rosemary pasta.  Also, we're invited to a BBQ tomorrow, so I started 18 hour bread last night and I'm making bacon jam to take for an appie and a dish of onion gratin.

I'd love to get together with them on our way back thru - mid-March. Cause there is another restaurant, Posh, that we want to go back to. So, we'll plan two nights out in Scottsdale. (I'm making a note in my travel book!!) I'm off to check out Petite Maison

We will have to stop in at Petite Maison the next time we are in Scottsdale! Nice website, nice menu! Yummy! Jean we love Bacon Jam. My son even asked for it today for breakfast. This is how I presented it the other night while taste testing. Except I used arugula instead of frisee. Sorry pic is so big. I should have taken one of my own. ![[Image: baconjam.jpg]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w73/ltracyb/CuisineatHome/baconjam.jpg)

Beautiful luvnit! We are having this Rachel Ray braised beef today. I have never in my life braised a top sirloin and I'm hoping it comes out ok. It's rainy and cool here today so something like this sounds good plus this will free up my usual dinner prep time for helping Michael with his homework if he needs it (though he is getting a lot more independent). http://www.cookingchanneltv.com/recipes/...index.html

I had to save it so I could see it. Beautiful, Laura. I'm planning on matching some chevre with it. Oh Roxanne, how fun and I also googled Chef James. Did he ever follow up with the BBQ place? the article was 2011. And, this is what I'll have - ESCARGOTS roasted garlic | parsley butter | white wine | toasted baguette ENTREE* crispy veal sweet breads with capers, brandy and shallot And, what a great idea the Staff Meal is - STAFF MEAL is Petite Maison's take on late night dining. Offered Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights from 10pm to Midnight, STAFF MEAL is an opportunity for our talented cooks to prepare their best dishes and offer it to guests. Priced from $8 to $12, the menu isn't known until that day. All foodies, friends and gourmands are welcome! http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/bella/2...ng_new.php
