Weekend grub

Yorkshire puddings is always a hit in our house

Today, for the first time, I made enough.

12x3=36 pieces)

Little Chef had his with strawberry jam as usual,

the rest of us had them with gravy and all the trimmings.

Since I am a mum of two teenagers

I seem to always be on stand by

in case someone needs a ride somewhere

or needs to be picked up somewhere.

I don't like to have them walking in the streets after dark

.Therefor, there hasn't been much wine drinking lately.

Today I gave my husband the car keys

and granted myself a glass of wine!

Yorkshires and wine, very sofisticated!

Books

Protecting the pages of knowledge! It has to be done!

Chicken and chick pea soup

It is always time for soup

Warm, thick and tasty.

our throuts are slightly sore,

just when school is about to start for the kids.

I didn't go lightly on the chile!

Copy cat

Cooking is somtimes about borrowing other peoples ideas!

New ways of cooking

adding new stuff to the repertoire!

Good old Pringles, crushed

And Chicken breast in pieces

turned in flour, egg and pringle crumbs

Fried in oil

Crispy pieces served with tortellini and vegetables

Thanks for the idea Christo,

this is officially one of our new favourites!

Teens and mommies

I'm officially mother of two teenagers
as Little Chef turns 13 today.
Pink Princesse has been a teenager for som time now
And she has her dignity to think of
(or so she claims)
But the Little Chef still has fun with his mommy:

Corny pork

Having english as my second language can be challenging

when it comes to naming ingredients when I cook.

I might name them all wrong, but bear with me I'm doing the best I can

If you see me make an obvious mistake, please tell me

I love to learn!

Anyway lets call this meat

smoked pork chops

Its not too far from the truth I think.

Corn as sweet as candy

A rare pleasure!

Potatoes au gratin, chop and corn.
Maybe not the most elegant plate
but genuine and tasty!

End of holiday, but still its holiday in my heart

Its August and I'm back at work

and I my mind is drifting

to a picnic in a park

and a walk on a beach
While I sit in my office

My oregano is wild and flowering

In my freezer

There is boxes of cherry goodness

for many winter desserts to be made When the weekend comes once more

I'll be making cheesy scones yet another time

to my dearest, just because he loves them

There will be no leftovers for lunch
