. . . gastronomical perfection can be reached in these combinations: one person dining alone, usually upon a couch or a hill side; two people, of no matter what sex or age, dining in a good restaurant; six people . . . dining in a good home.

The highpoint this weekend was a birthday dinner that my daughter and I put together. Tarragon chicken, roasted asparagus and risotto. My daughter is a vegetarian so the risotto was vegetarian...oh yes, and outstanding. She is phenomenal and flexible. She even made a turkey for Thanksgiving...very challenging for a vegetarian! A great meal and great company. Nothing like family! Annie's risotto and asparagus recipes follow. This recipe is the result of her efforts to recreate a risotto she had when she and her husband were dining at the Lagoon restaurant in Bora Bora.
