I just got a new book too. We took the dog for a walk in the woods, got some fresh air, and sat by a really nice tree. If I had packed a lunch we could have had a picnic, but we saw a pretty bird in the tree.
It was wonderful. Later I'll have a nice glass of wine, but we have to go get some fresh scallops to make this most delicious side dish. You take an egg, and some coconut and flour, and you dip the scallop in the egg and then in the coconut. Then you broil them til it's all golden brown and done.
