I have also made some fresh lemon curd this afternoon, so might have a slice of bread with that on after with a cup of tea:thumbsup:


But I'd rather eat this, sigh.

This sounds delicio!

Never had a go at making pasta or gnocchi but if I was going to, that would be my choice.

I have used my own home-grown sage to make the butter for shop made pasta before, so maybe I could do the rest!

IT is very simple... I use this recipe http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/pum...cotta_gnocchi/

Thanks for that - I will definitely try this recipe as I have a load of pumpkin in my freezer that could be put to good use.
I don't grow my own sage yet here, though, so maybe I will get a plant for the windowsill before I try it - there is nothing as good as freshly picked herbs.
I also used up all my butter in yesterday's lemon curd.

That sounds lovely as well, although salad doesn't appeal so much here on a drab, chilly and damp Friday.
I'll save that for another, sunnier day.

Not yet made a decision about tonight's repast.

Last night we had a Thai green fish curry (basa fillets) and basmati rice.

Yum!

I made some last night and added an extra three teaspoons of chill powder and boy it was great. I used fresh tomatoes this time so it was a tad sweet but I mitigated that with a tablespoon of rice wine vinegar and it all turned out to be the bollox. :thumb up:

I don't want or need Canadian friends but if you do, this recipe will get them lining up at the door.

Homemade chili, tomato wraps, avocado and sour cream for us tonight.
I had the chili already made, so this is the quick and easy tea I want on a Friday after a rather difficult week.:)

I might be tempted to drink some wine, too.:heart:

HID was working late so I made myself a large BLT with a mound of double smoked Danish bacon and lashing of brown sauce. Who says you can't live a civilized existence in Canada, eh buddy?
