Morning Golf is the holiday treat for today. To beat the heat – a quick nine holes was in order. This is followed by Huevos Rancheros at the Kennedy golf course club house.

Today i will fire the wok up in air conditioning and try the five spice ground ginger from NYT Cooking. A vegetarian take on classics stir fry.
