Pizza with leftover omelette sauce – 14 December 2011

Omelette with tomato-mushroom-eggplant sauce; salad with pomegranate seeds – 11 December 2011
D saw me doing the first night of Fiona’s curry and thought it was for this dinner. About 7pm he asked, and found out it wasn’t. He made a wonderful dinner on the spot. He cut up a very long … Continue reading

Panini; radishes with butter and salt – 2 December 2011
Well, I managed not to write this up on time and have forgotten (by the 22nd!) which panino this was 😦 I expect it was the excellent one with radicchio and scamorze and truffle oil, since there is no doubt … Continue reading
