a busy week of food ...
Chicken and Rotini ....
Apple Cobbler...with my favourite McIntosh apples.
Tonight I started a soup from the sprout water, some tomatoes.. celery, onions, tossed in some Chick peas... spices.. veggie broth... not sure yet what I will add tomorrow to finish it off.
Sometimes it seems like I am on a roll with the meals...other weeks, I don't feel like doing as much. But, isn't it just the way... with life and food as well. I went through so many things this week, that I forget what the heck I actually did with some of the recipes...so won't even attempt to remember them this far after the fact. Luckily I did get the halibut recorded right away..it was sooo tasty. Today I did the little lemon chicken for supper ... one of our favs ... and the gravy was the best yet. It gets so much flavour from the onion, garlic and lemon wedges in the bird. I think I got a bit more daring with my spices today... perhaps even more so than other days. It was yummy....
Oh, hey! and I finally found a new pepper mill that I like. The old one just gave up the ghost. How I have missed freshly cracked black pepper. There are too many grinders, mills and shakers to choose from though ... and the price range... ack! I admired one made by Peugeot...but I think they thought they were still selling cars ...I couldn't justify paying that much. Besides... they seemed a bit top heavy...and I wanted the reverse..so it won't fall over when bumped. I already put a dent in my floor with the other one doing that.
This week I want to do some canneloni..so will be looking in my recipes for a tasty one... and Barm Brack. ... love that loaf. A very moist loaf, supposedly of Irish origin... with raisins....

Goodness, but you are a busy, talented gal! I've been looking at your other blogs as well. I'll post there, too, later this afternoon. Wow! Really incredible things to see. (Oh, loved the bathroom redo as well.)
