Well, I thought I'd be able to skip a week undetected, but y'all are good. To those of you who reached out privately when I missed last week's post, thank you so much for your concern! I've been quite ill for the last 3 weeks, starting with an upper respiratory infection that took my voice for a week, immediately followed by getting hit with Covid. And I don't just mean hit. I mean bulldozed. I have never been this sick in my life. My body is spent, y'all. Thankfully, Covid skipped Allison this time, but Jason and I have both been struggling along wondering if there will ever be a light at the end of the tunnel. I didn't lose my senses of taste or smell, but my appetite is nonexistent. Which has made this the perfect time for Jason to clear out the freezer and make himself dishes that I would normally skip. Yesterday he felt well enough to pull out some salmon and made this Golden Blossom Honey recipe of Poached Salmon with Pears and Apples for his dinner. 

 

 

I was thinking that this would be a fantastic recipe to keep on hand as the holidays are quickly approaching. For one who gets exhausted just doing the most mundane of tasks right now, the husband was able to pull off this recipe without much effort on his part. And, it turned out beautiful. If your family is like ours and will be skipping the traditional ham or turkey for the holiday meals this year, I think this salmon dish is a wonderful change of pace. The fruit topping is festive enough for any holiday table and the honey mustard gives it that extra special kick of flavor that will have your inner Oliver holding out your empty plate while saying, "Please, sir. I want some more."
