Neighbors

When your husband is a chef, and your neighbor is a chef, you can always run next door when you run out of something. Today my neighbor came over to borrow sesame oil for tuna tar-tar. I gave him the sesame oil, and some of Scott's BBQ brisket we told him about. A little while later, the neighbor kids come over to return the sesame oil and gave me this:
Bob's Tuna Tar-Tar
Love having awesome neighbors! And get this, the guy moving in to the townhouse on the other side of us is also a chef...haven't met him yet, but I am foreseeing an iron chef style cook-off this summer!

that's amazing. i thought we had a good situation in having an extra bottle of tanqueray to donate to our neighbor's halloween party. then she gave me a container of pink himalayan & lavender finishing salt as a thank you. we compared finishing salt notes a few weeks later and she asked if i had a nice bath lately...huh?

i think i thought the salts were for cooking and she thinks they're for bathing. so confused!

can't wait to see what your next exchange turns out...and mine, for that matter.
