A Slow Food Dinner with Friends

This last week, we invited two couples from church to join us at our home for a Slow Food dinner to celebrate the end of summer, and to enjoy food procured from a 10-mile radius from our home here in Maltby.  The weather was perfect for a summer celebration, and our pine dining table comfortably seated six people.

The menu included steelhead salmon with a chili rub cooked on the grill, along with marinated teriyaki chicken breasts. We had corn on the cob from the Farmer's Market, along with a salad with tomatoes from our garden.  We had homemade rice pilaf and honey cornbread with butter.  Dessert was homemade apple pie (apples from our trees) and Snoqualmie Gourmet Ice Cream.

It was a great time of fellowship over a meal, and provided all of us a chance to get to know each other better.
