Letter to Erin 20150305

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Hey there, my beautiful beloved Erin.  How are you feeling, Sweetheart?  Did you have fun on your birthday?  I wish I could have made you a nice chocolate mousse cake or something.  I wish you were here, of course.  And I still need to get my chocolate chops down.

Oh, yesterday I stocked up my cooler.  I didn't buy any chocolate, though.  I like chocolate, I just don't eat a lot of it.  I seem to have a lot of chocolate and milk powders, and even some soy lecithin.  My first attempt at making a chocolate bar was a dismal failure, so I used the mix to make mole sauce instead.  I'll get the hang of it inshaAllah.  But I bought sirloin, chicken breast, a large scad, tofu, wonton and spring roll skins, and so on.  Last night I had scad sushi rolled in spring rolls.  It was really good, but my hot sauce was old, which ruined my dining experience.  So today I made stuffed wontons again, and a fresh batch of hot sauce, and marinara sauce.  I have one more dough ball which I must finish before I make a new batch of dough, so tomorrow for lunch it's going to be a sausage calzone.  I try not to waste anything.  I suppose you won't be joining me for lunch.  I have a busy day tomorrow anyway.  When we are face to face inshaAllah, I will make you a nice chocolate mousse.  Erin, I love you.  And I need you.
