Today was a great day for resting as the wind was whipping the rain around outside and mum had to go off to work. It was dark when she left and dark on the way home. Mum poured herself a large vodka and lemonade and watched the news, happy knowing that she has a day off tomorrow.
She had been wanting to try a new recipe and tonight was the night. She made a lime and coriander rice and a chicken saagwala curry. It is not too spicy and has onions, tomatoes and spinich made up into a tasty sauce. Mum liked it a lot and finds it a good way to get all of her veg in one serving. She did not take a photo as the curry although delicious resembles baby pooh.
Mum has used almost managed to use up almost every dish and utensil in the kitchen. She also broke a blue mixing bowl that she likes to use, and is unable to replace as they were made over 30 years ago. It is amazing how glass shatters after falling onto kitchen tiles. So she spent the remaining part of the evening hoovering the kitchen . Lucky mum.

Bummer with breaking a favorite bowl. You get used to things and now to find a something to replace it that is just as good.
ReplyDeleteMy heart sank reading about the broken bowl. I know what that's like. During a move ten years ago, the only item that the movers broke was a glass IV bottle (complete with gradations in the glass) that came home with me when I was born. They could have smashed anything else...
