Last weekend, quite busy, leg of lamb, 2 chickens, kilo carrots, a cauliflower, a broccoli and a couple of kilos of potatoes. Roast meat, roast and mashed potatoes, broccoli and cauli in white sauce with cheese, lamb and chicken gravy - fed 13, only scraps of chicken left and made stock from both lots of bones.
This weekend, stayed at Royal Marine in Dun Laoghaire on Friday night, ate at Rasam in Glasthule , definately the best Indian in Ireland. Early bird, she had Aloo Tikka and Rustic Chicken I had calamari and mixed veg curry, as always came with rice, naan and spiced potatoes. She loves the padadoms and sauces, me less so, but I like lots of heat and these are much more crowd pleasers. House red (a Chilean Cab Sav) really lovely, food perfect quantity as well as quality.
Couple of glasses of wine in Forty Foot Wetherspoons on way back. Swim and lovely full Irish breakfast Saturday morning. Standard roast chicken Saturday night. Made stock Sunday morning.
Out Sunday morning to RDS for Charity Bazaar, go every year, had a Slovakian sausage with great horseradish and mustard with rye bread, almost chorizo-like. Won a bottle of very plain label German apple brandy, could be interesting.
Round to the main hall of RDS for Art Source, again, an annual event, bought another picture, our art walls are getting full!
Chilli tonight, just about to start, last one was crap and flavourless, need to concentrate more, left over chicken tomorrow and a meal out on Thursday
