Catalan Supper, New Cake and Einstein

28 Oct

We cooked another of our Spicery meals tonight as Daughter No 1 was with us having helped to put the boat to bed for the winter in the ship-yard and it was very good indeed – Catalan Seafood Fideua with Lemon Allioli and a green salad.

This afternoon I made a new cake where I blended two recipes and it worked out well. It’s oranges and lemons and sour cream and I need to think of a name!

Here  are some more useful words, this time from Einstein.

Gylly Beach, Pink Flower and Sarawak Laska

10 Sep

Today’s walk was along Cliff Road above Gylly Beach where there is a long flat walk which is what I need at the moment. The sea was quite choppy and, of course, beautiful!

Along the way was a small bush that may have been Lavatera but I am not sure as the flowers were much more blowsy than usual.

For Father’s Day earlier this year, the kids bought the lovely Mr S a subscription to The Spicery and tonight Daughter No 1 cooked Sarawak Laska which was absolutely delicious. The Spicery kits are brilliant! They come with all the spices needed, very clear instructions and a heat rating! I didn’t add the Sambal Balacan which was much hotter than suits me.
