Have been domestic goddessing myself today, using up stuff we bought last week but I haven't been up to cooking. Avoglemono soup for lunch, apple and feijoa crumble for some time and slow cooked pork belly for dinner. Just checking out fennel bulb salads ..... used to eat it a lot when I lived in France, but cant remember what I did with it. There is a bit of a glut on the market at the moment so I bought a whole lot! Just about to try a recipe with roasted red paper, sesame and pine nuts, lettuce and fennel bulb.

Did I miss something? Who's got the new boyfriend???

Right .
I have just had the second drop in without a requisition form in one day.
Have these country folk not heard of the city folk and their insistence upon lonely anonimity ? Eh? What's WRONG with em ? Do they think they might explode if they spend a coupla days without human contact ?

Well I've unplugged the bloody doorbell thingo.
Now they'll have to go away and 'find themselves' Serves em right.

Avoglemono soup = chicken soup with rice. And lemon. Much comfort food ...... and I'm not even greek!

ummmmm communist tabloid with fennel and lettuce. Sure to have me up in the middle of the night arguing with the talk-back people

Cat update: Betty is gradually getting used to not having her fourth leg, and is readjusting her habits. Her favourite place is right next to my computer, and a stepping tower has been built for her so she doesn't need to jump too much. Despite the fact that the vets wants her kept inside for another couple of weeks, she has had other plans and has managed to get out on several occasions. Our other cat (Wookie) appears to be complicit in these escapes ..... we have seen him lifting the cap flap up for her to get out :H:H He also sticks with her until she gets back in again however. They are such a hoot together!!

okay, rest of dinner beckoning. Am trying to get all the less-healthy stuff into the oven tonight and see if a couple of weeks of macro-biotic eating doesn't knock this 6 months of bugs into the next dimension

I throb the friendly fennels' crunchy aniseed taste. Thinly sliced with a good dressing - just yummo.

I grumpy face the feral fennels which tend to throb growing along railway sidings. Just yukky.

Reggie - I reckon that's responsible fennel management. Keeps 'em contained and stops them spreading to other parts. You know, once they cross the Ring Road, it's all over red rover and ... Bob's yer Uncle.

Hah - I've just worked it out, young Bridge ... I reckon you over-throbbed the Ouzo when you were in Greece - hence the grumpy face at all aniseeds now.
