some beef curry with vegies and baked potato

I’m going for salad too. Tuna and egg and all the veges. Yoghurt/cream cheese/mustard dressing. Found out I’m pre-diabetic 🥹 recently so working on low(ish) carbs. I already did good vege mix but the pasta and -ahem- chocolate and -ahem- cider needs to go.

Great (friends) Birthday lunch at the Greek place near ours:

House made pita, bread, spreads. Giant Greek salad, dolmas, calamari, moussaka, shredded lamb (kebab).

First time I’ve ever had (or heard of) pine wine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retsina

Although the person who ordered it for the table lamented how little the pine came through on the wine-apparently its supposed to be a very strong flavor to counter the garlic-lemon and olive flavors of the Greek food. I’m going to keep pressing him about it until he imports a bottle for us to try (then make a Greek dinner for us to break it open!)

I just seasoned some chicken pieces with garlic and herbs and threw it in the oven until it’s golden and crispy skinned. I was too tired for anything more inspiring than that.

Edit: your lucky wishes worked CEO, the roast beef I did yesterday came out lovely! Will definitely do again.

Last of the eggplant curry and rice for lunch. Tonight, it’ll be whatever the +1 cooks, which I think is something like one-pot macaroni lasagna.

You?
