What to do this weekend in DC – (October 23-25)

So I went to the store today and they had a deal on Sea Scallops.  They were 8.99 a pound.  A steal if you ask me.  So I picked up 10 scallops for dinner.  I wanted to try something a little different so I made a BBQ sauce for them out of Hoisin Sauce and Orange Juice. Grilled Scallops Served over a pile of couscous this was a great meal.

Apparently, it’s a common cut of pork, and can easily be found in supermarkets and butcher shops.So I decided to make pulled pork! (The kimchi on top was an afterthought.)I chose a cold and rainy weekend to make experiment with pork butt

I suspect this dish was a success. The recipe I used was a combination of recipes from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s The River Cottage Meat Book , and Nigella Lawson’s, How to be a Domestic Goddess . Fearnley-Whittingstall and Lawson are both british, and they both seem to really like steak and kidney pie.

I learned something about myself this past weekend walking through a corn maze Matt and I went to in northern Virginia. Something I perhaps already knew in the depths of my mind. I love to lead.

It might be autumn but I’m still grilling as often as I can. The only downside I’ve found to grilling, though, is that I find it difficult to be both in the house making a salad and side dishes and outside turning and moving little bits of food such as shrimp or scallops around. My solution: throw ‘em on skewers! Not only will small foods not fall through the grating when they’re held together on a skewer, but turning four skewers takes much less time than turning 24 individual shrimp
