Ricky wanted pasta, I wanted fish. We're not coin tossers, and we're both really good at Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock, so I went ahead and made both. We ended up eating salmon cooked with yellow onions and organic lemons served over whole grain farfalle with olive oil, scallions, fresh parsley, and salt. I really like the onion/lemon combination, and the fish cooked perfectly once I nestled it on top of the onions, covered it with the lemon slices, and put a lid on it. I honestly believe that overcooking salmon should be punishable by law.
If you're from the Northwest, like me, then you know that salmon begs to be paired with Pinot Noir. I went to pick up a bottle today, and was delighted to find a bottle from the Oregon coast!
Firesteed 2007 Pinot Noir. It was a big hit. Nice and fruity with great body, it went very well with the fish. Highly recommended by yours truly.

I think that was a superb compromise with the dinner! I'm going to mention that wine to dh. We're always in search of good ones, and I do like fruity.
