At Jason's request, I made a batch of falafel. Started last week with soaking the chick peas, then on Saturday making the mix (mostly from the NYT, but with a lot more herbs). Even though I felt a little silly standing out on the porch deep-frying (too hot to cook inside!) I was pleased to see that they held their shape well.
Jason had made pita earlier in the day (on the grill, which he now likes enough to continue doing even when it isn't one million degrees out), and I made some tahini sauce; I also served them with feta, tomatoes, cucumber pickles and sambal oelek. Then I convinced Jason to take me to the store to buy ice cream, since he won't let me bake anything until it cools off.
