| | I was gonna go out but that plan didn't really pan out so I just so happened to have a whole chicken in the fridge. Quick large dice of potatoes and onions, seasoned with garlic salt, dried thyme and rosemary, a little olive oil, tied it all up and into the oven. Played a little Diablo2 for 1.5hours, let it rest for 10mins, quartered it up, and done. Took some time but prep was minimal work and I basically didn't have to worry about it. |

....I had three friends from Nova Scotia come to visit me and one of them was celebrating their birthday so naturally I made a nice spread because it is not every day that people turn 30, except for me that is, I can't figure it out but for some reason I have not aged past 29 for the last 6 years! Any hoo I forgot to mention the Dulce Tres leches cake that I made to finish off the meal nicely. Yum Yum!

| | Got a piece of lamb leg the other day at the market. Last night was a curried lamb, onion and raisin dish, tasty but needs some fine tuning. Tonight was a slab of the lamb pan fried with a side of some leftover patoots and mushroom gravy and a big pile of steamed veggies. More leftovers tomorrow, but friday night I'm thinking maybe crab and cream cheese enchiladas. Any tips on those?
mjb.
ps: Oops, I said patoots, that's what my wife and I call them. In your household they are probably known as potatoes.
