Day off meant we had time for dinner with Jen and John. We started off with a cocktail from SK that I had been wanting to try that featured black pepper syrup and muddled strawberries. John tinkered with it a bit and the results were nice! He also picked up steaks (!) for dinner; I just seared them in a hot pan with salt and pepper and then sliced them up. Chunky mashed potatoes and sauteed snap peas rounded things out (and of course bread from Jason). Dessert was a lemon spice cake from the NYT. It called for a loaf pan but I used a square cake pan (faster cooking FTW) and think it was a good call. I cooked it for 40 minutes but could probably have stopped at 35. Anyway, people liked it, especially with some of the leftover strawberries.
