Having a huge plate of veggie cottage pie plus one of those microwave veg pots...the ones with the layered veg...I have never had one as not really had a microwave till now..

I think I will open a bottle of something too.

Put some black-eyed beans to soak so I think it's going to be some kind of dhal affair on Thursday pm.

last night was ottolenghi's chilli & garlic broccoli with a whole heap of other roasted veg or steamed and chargrilled veg, with flaked almonds and couscous.

tonight is a meal out at the super cheap and cheerful Italian up the road. no buckets of wine for me tonight though as I've got a 5k race tomorrow

 

[fakeplasticgirl]

good luck with the race crusty!

A friend is cooking dinner form me tonight... think it's risotto. Mmmmm.

 

[fredfelt]

Yum! Asparagus for tea yesterday. First of the season so served simply - fried in butter, salt, pepper and few chilli flakes. Served with lemon juice and parmesan (actually a hard vegetarian parmesan style cheese).

More asparagus this evening. A friend picks it from a local farm so I after meeting I'll whisk them and their freshly picked stash off to my place before indulging! Think I'll probably serve it as part of a green salad (peas, beans, seeds etc).

 

[dolly's gal]

i think we'll be having lamb kofta with a big old salad

it's sunny so a welcome move away from stodgy comfort

 

[sojourner]

I love asparagus - but I am one of those badly affected types so don't eat it anymore

Well, it's the daughter's final day at Uni today - deadline for all her work. She's worked her fucking socks off for the last 6 weeks - through into the night, getting up early etc, and my god she's pulled it off. I've had a good look through it all and am dead proud of her. So - on her request, and as the fella is out twatting about on a stage all weekend, tonight we eat chicken! Chicken madras, to be precise, using that Patak's paste - quality fucking stuff that

I shall also buy some onion bhajis cos she loves 'em, and a big gooey choccy cake Awwww. Can't bloody believe she's a) 21 and b) leaving fucking University!!

Gawd, tell me about it! She's all over the shop emotionally about it - hated big parts of the course, big problems with lecturers etc, but now it's the last day and she's all 'ohhhh shiiiit what do I do now?!'

The exhibition is in a gallery in Liverpool - I'm going to it, so might take photos of her photos and then put them up. With her permission of course!

Chicken jalfreizi, rice and some pak choi, probably stir friend, as it needs eating up.

Cocktails What kind shall I have?

Does gin and tonic count as a cocktail? If not add a slice of lime.

 

[miss direct]

I do like mai tai's, but had one the other night and it wasn't strong enough for my liking.
