      They're in the midst of nasty head colds- which they have, of course, passed on to Julie and me- so they're especially cranky right now.  Shutting them up in a cellar is a wonderful fantasy.

          I would love that Tarka Dhal recipe G. I have a Pat Chapman version which is not bad….always best after it's cooled a bit and started to solidify.

              Gotta shout out for the kids - Caroline is a lovely little girl, Benjamin (admittedly not met) a delightful and spirited boy - could be that Dad is the cranky one who gets locked in the cellar…

                As long as we're not in the same room, so that I can have some quiet time to myself, sure.  I'll happily be the one that goes to the basement.:)

                And lest anyone get the wrong idea, my children are generally quite sweet, loveable little people.  It's just when we're all sick that I (and Caroline) get really short tempered.

                  Ah, promise not to lock you in the basement (unless you want to be, maybe with large supply of Belgian beer!)

                  Hope you all feel better very soon - lots of love from Gosport to y’all  😘

                    Same to you, too, Paula!  By the way, my big blue bag showed up today.  Three days from Gosport to Houston; not bad.

                          Decided on making some ricotta today for the first time a while.  I always forget just how good that stuff is fresh.


                          Ricotta on thinly sliced zucchini with salt, pepper, and olive oil.

                            Again Pasta time

                            Ham, Italian sausages and champion mushrooms in creamy tomato sauce. Some freshly fried Champions marinated in garlic oil.

                            pour the pasta sauce into the pan

                            add cream

                            Let simmer while spaghetti is cooking.

                                  Tonight's quick dinner. Roasted salmon, fresh green asparagus and lemon mayonnaise with zest.

                                  Sometimes the simplest things are the best.

                                  AIAN HA-TO!

                                      Cool; last night for dinner I made grilled salmon with streamed fresh asparagus lightly coated in olive oil, fresh cracked pepper and a touch of garlic.  Quick, easy and really good.  I could eat salmon and asparagus 4-5 nights a week…

                                          Had some homemade pizza last week. Sucuk (Turkish garlic sausage) with champignon. Enjoyed it with a bottle of Corsendonk.
