Today was one of those days that I had a lot to do and not enough time to get it done. I had forgotten to sign a paper at work and even though it was my day off, I had to go in and sign it, and I work a good bit away, so this took some time. That coupled with the homework I had to do meant that I didn’t get around to blogging until what is now after 10:30, but Steve made these lovely lettuce wraps for dinner, that I just had to tell you about.
He made the filling in an iron skillet on the grill. To eat one, you place a bit of the filling in a leaf of Boston lettuce, wrap it slightly, and pick it up and eat it. They can be bit messy to eat, but they are so worth it.
