Marinated London Broil with Lemon and Garlic from Epicurious, with roasted vegetables and sliced tomatoes.
Wine: Dr Loosen "Red Slate" Mosel Dry Riesling 2009. This has apricot and citrus in the aroma--the flavor is good, not quite up to the aroma. Overall very nice, and a good match to the lemon and other flavors in the meat.

Tonight we had Orecchiette with Garbanzos, Tomatoes, Feta and Mint (except we had to use Farfalle--no Orecchiette at King Soopers!) from Epicurious. This is a simple pasta salad, but when you use fresh mint and tomatoes and cilantro, it tastes incredible.

Wine: Crane Lake Pinot Grigio 2009, a very good match to the herbal elements in the salad, with an acidity that brightens it up.
