charismatic balsamic

Not only did I have a fantastic dinner tonight but I had a great lunch yesterday! I decided to experiment when I brought some lunch over to a friends house. I called it summertime brushetta. It has cucumber, tomato, balsamic vinegrette and olive oil with a little s/p. I toasted some rosemary bread and put the brushetta on top...yumm, yumm, yumm! On the side we had some rolled up smoked ham and buffalo turkey with some craisins sprinkled on top.

Today was quite hot so I thought it would be best to make something refreshing. Dinner consisted of watermelon, canteloup, smoked ham and buffalo turkey, cucumbers, tomatoes and carrots with some red roasted potatoes. All doused with balsamic vinegrette. Somewhat the same idea of what we had yesterday for lunch just all out on the plate seperately so I could dip them all in the balsamic.

Oh, Balsamic vinegrette

your taste, I'll never forget

Somehow you shimmer

and somewhat glimmer

Changing each flavor

to something I'll savor

from the bottle you will soon be absent

Unwillingly with my consent

Yes, that was pretty pathetic to write a poem about balsamic vinegrette...what can I say....I'm pathetic!
