Getting a decent Porterhouse or lamb cutlets here is harder than unused splitch crotch panties . Two things I look forward to when I go home.

It was a nice night, good to see people telling funny stories, and they had lots of photos and video of him. Man it was exhausting though. Cheers
That's good to hear. Well done to the car club.

Last weekend the son put in a request for American BBQ for the following Sunday.

So last night, I did. But all done in the oven.

3kg pork ribs
1kg beef spare ribs
1kg Buffalo wings
Coleslaw
Corn on the cob
Sourdoughs bread with butter.

Cooked the meat low and slow in the oven and made my own sweet, hot and tangy BBQ sauce for the pork ribs

Left overs for dinner tonight. :D

Scotch Fillet steak for me and baked salmon for the 35 week pregnant mum to be. Mash, broccolini, sweet potato and carrot on the side.

Lemon roulade for dessert (cheated and store bought that one).

Making a Beef, Bacon, Beer and mushroom stew, with celery, parsnip, carrot and zucchini, and cheese and chive dumplings on top.

Got it simmering on the stove while watching the Pies game on TV. I'll make the dumplings at half time.

1. I mada a vegetable chickpea curry late last week: Mustard seeds, cumin, tumeric, coriander and chilli (all ground), onion garlic, a tin of tomatoes and water that covers the veges: Carrot, potato, zucchini, red capsicum and cauliflower. Salt & pepper to taste. Served with brown rice, fresh cornander and indian yoghurt. Israeli side salad of diced tomatoes, capsicum, cucumber spring onion and left over tabbouli from the day before.

2. Last night youngest came over to stay & study (and cook) she made vegetable enchiladas with a coriander, lime and chilli sauce and a delicious sald.

3. Got home from work & footy (long day) and she made a tuna tomato/vege based pasta sauce with olives and pasta shells and a basic garden salad. For desert she made a moist carrot cake (with pecans and walnuts all in thr food processor) with lemon icing. Not good for the waistline.

She primarily came to study. She usually on weekends studies at Monash Caulfield library. Also she brought washing: nice quiet warm house, Mrs WPT does tge washing ( more her whites etc) they went out early for brekky & shopping, then she studied . Her contribution as it were is something she likes doing: cooking and baking.

Happens every coupla weeks depending where she is with respect to assignments and exam prep. Has an exam on contract law I think in a few weeks

I like a salad more than cooked veges, but I just can't quite do it over winter
