Gus,we need a housemate from September 1st. Will you move in with us, pretty please?
OOOOoohhhhh! That's a great idea! Bring beer.
I cooked my once every six weeks steak.... plus baked potato, natch. Protein infusion. What will I dream tonight, eh?
Coming up tonight: Penne with Bolognese sauce (saved by my freezer!) with grated Grana Padano & chopped flat leaf parsley on top.
Waiting for the report, msolga. A true bolognese is, to me, near boring but rich. Personally, I want to spark it up a bit. but, no easy cooking can get you the basic of a bolognese.

Dear osso
My Bolognese sauce is sort of "creative" effort, based on the fresh ingredients available at the time. It changes all the time!
A purist might not approve! :wink:
I had fried fish pomfret with Dal rice.
Late lunch/early dinner today at my favourite Vietnamese cafe, accompanied by the usual culprits. We couldn't help ourselves - we'd been hanging out for more of those delicious stuffed "pancake" creations (I've mentioned before here) for weeks. We had lots! Yum!
We bought 2 (about 1.5 pounds) lobsters and some new potatoes at the farm market on Grand Manan. We ate lobsters and onion baked potatoes on board the boat in the evening light. We sailed slowly home in a flat indigo sea and a bright moonlit sky at our back. (The best night lite for water travel). The lobster was good too.
On board, I could just as well live on bowls of cereal and cups of tea . Food is so second place, no, third place.
Dinner was Vodka and fresh orange juice

lamb burgers with mozzarella
cucumber salad
potato salad
cole slaw

Filet of pork oberbaked with a province herbs sauce, chanterelles, estragon (baked) potatoes.
Coming up tonight (in fact, cooking as I type!): a roast leg of turkey with baked potatoes, plus steamed green beans.
Sausage and Mash and Onion Gravy

A bit more nourishment there, Dorothy!

And? How's you amputated, one-legged turkey doing today?
Have you ever tried to eat a whole one, just by yourself, Walter? I thought it wisest to make off with just one leg! :wink:
You see, when I studied, there was a lake in front of the student's restaurant.
They served "quartered duck in orange sauce" once.
When I looked at the ducks swimming in circlers on that lake, I've decided not to eat legs, wings, etc by a bird other than as a pair :wink:
Now you've made me feel terrible about that poor, poor turkey, Walter!
(But it's leg was delicious!)
