Andy was off yesterday at a meeting and the In-laws and I had dinner together. Since they’re packing up all their boxes and not everything can be done by others and my kidneys acting up, I’m mostly ground crew… Meaning that I make food and just keep the ship a float… So yesterdays dinner became a lovely creamy chicken and cauliflower curry served with rice and mango chutney.

You know when you buy asparagus and the bit at the bottom is stringy? You’re supposed to bend the asparagus and it will break where it’s natural stress is, leaving you with soft and crunchy asparagus. Well what do you do with the bits that you break off? I make asparagus soup, atleast I did yesterday. Every time we’ve eaten asparagus I’ve saved the bottom bits in a ziplock bag in the freezer and now …

Tonight, after a really long day of moving furniture and getting the In-laws house into shape for the movers and the container arrival tomorrow, we’re now settling down for dinner. Cheese fondue is on the menu and it’s something that I really love!

I’m in a quite bit of pain today, my kidneys are acting up and all the moving has just killed me. So my Mother-in-law has graciously made dinner, and Andy and his Dad are working hard with the move… I’m on the couch, with a lit candle and my iPhone, trying to imagine that the pain is elsewhere…
