Cooking instruction summary:

Cook barley, if you haven't already done so. Pat scallops dry and season with sea salt and pepper. In a large, heavy, hot saut pan add 1 tablespoon olive and add scallops in batches so they're not crowded. Cook over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes per side, or until somewhat firm to the touch and well-caramelized on the outside. Remove from the pan and cover with foil. Repeat with remaining scallops. Set aside and keep warm. To the pan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, garbanzo beans, barley and greens beans and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add wine and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom and sides of the pan. Cook for 3-5 minutes. Turn off heat, add butter, parsley, lemon zest and salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Stir to combine until butter is melted. Serve scallops on top of beans and barley. Drizzle remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil over the top of the scallops and garnish with lemon zest and parsley.

Food Joke

Two women had been having a friendly lunch when the subject turned to sex. "You know, John and I have been having some sexual problems," Linda told her friend. That's amazing!" Mary replied, "So have Tom and I. We're thinking of going to a sex therapist," said Linda. "Oh, we could never do that! We'd be too embarrassed!" responded Mary. "But after you go, will you please tell me how it went?" Several weeks passed and they met met for lunch again. "So, how did the sex therapy work out, Linda?" "Things couldn't be better!", Linda exclaimed. "We began with a physical exam, and afterward the doctor said he was certain he could help us. He told us to stop at the grocery store on the way home and buy a bunch of grapes and a dozen donuts. He told us to sit on the floor nude, and toss the grapes and donuts at each other. Every grape that went into my vagina, John had to get it out with his tongue. Every donut that I ringed his penis with, I had to eat. Our sex life is wonderful, in fact it's better than it's ever been!" With that endorsement, Mary talked her husband into an appointment with the same sex therapist. After the physical exams were completed the doctor called Mary and Tom into his office. "I'm afraid there is nothing I can do for you," he said. But doctor," Mary complained, "You did such good for Linda and John, surely you must have a suggestion for us! Please, please, can't you give us some help? Any help at all?" "Well, OK," the doctor answered. "On your way home, I want you to stop at the grocery store and buy a sack of apples and a box of Cheerios..."
