A goal of Dawn on their 101 Things in 1001 Days list with a status of Done.
April: I've made a few new dishes this month but they weren't overly exciting (egg roll soup). Due to the lock down the ingredients that I needed for the seafood salad that I wanted to make were unavailable. So, my daughter suggested a Croque Monsieur. Well, it's a grilled cheese sandwich kicked up quite a few notches. It's mainly made with ham and gruyere cheese and is baked not pan fried. Let's just say that I will be making this again.

December: Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Peanut Sauce. I’ve enjoyed these in the past from Thai Express and wanted to make them myself. I didn’t realize how time consuming it was to prep, cut and assemble the rolls. However, it was totally worth the time and effort.

August: Scallops with Pancetta and Sage. WOW!!! Besides the lack of grill marks they were delicious. I really thought that the sage would have been overpowering but was pleasantly surprised by its mellow flavour. Next time I’ll cook on a higher heat.
