Longer Days

Tuesday, March 29, 2011
Sunset was at 8pm tonight! I think we gain about 6 minutes each day until the summer solstice on June 21st. We're going to have to wear our eye masks pretty soon.

I'm still trying to find the perfect blackout curtains for our room, but blinds will do for now.


On another note, Ross made a fabulous meal of Balsamic salmon and homemade caesar salad. You may recall I wrote about an awesome tableside caesar salad that we had on one of our first date nights in Anchorage, made by the owner (Van) himself. Turns out Van's salad really is famous, because we found the recipe in one of the Alaska cookbooks we got as a gift before the move.

So we had to try it... Mashed garlic, raw anchovies, coddled eggs, fresh garlic croutons, aged balsamic, and grated Parmesan.  Van offers caesar salad cooking classes at his restaurant, but I don't think we need to go anymore. So good.

Mashing garlic.
