Since I posted anything about dinner etc, with pics. I can't remember.....
been as busy as a one legged man in an arse kicking competition.

Been a *huge* day today, been from one side of town to the other, and then
some...... and now I have the good fortune of getting 'up' in 3&1/2 hours
and do it all over again.

The last week...... or two....... or three... (when did I come back from
Sydney????)..... have been flat chat. Which can be a good thing...... or
not.


I've been coming into the house at the last moment, throwing some 'shit'
together, and dishing it up as dinner.

Been lazy since we got the tenderloin restock, and I've kept them all
outside in the beer fridge, so they're my 'fallback'.

So tonight I said "We need some fresh veges, no salad, no frozen stuff."


I took a page out of Om's book and nuked the veges...... put them in a
plastic 'sandwich bag' and put them on Low for 10mins to start..... and
then another 5mins to finish......... superbly crunchy, held their shape
and all the flavour.

Meanwhile I got some crappy old whole thighs (bone in) seasoned them and
cooked them in the benchtop convection oven.

For the last 5mins of their cooking time, I got the griddle pan up to
smokin' hot, and put on some sliced zuchinni.

And here we have it.

The second pic..... I was a bit quick after dishing the veges, and got a
lens full of steam :-)

So here we have it...... chicken thighs, seasoned and cooked so the juices
spurted out from under the skin... fresh cauliflower, broccoli, and whole
beans........ oh, and the griddled zuchinni.

I've gone off food altogether at the moment.

Must be a phase I'm going through.


Did a chicken Korma with coconut rice for dinner. The SO loved it, I ate
about a 1/3 and couldn't be bothered eating anymore. Didn't like it.

Same for the leftover deepdish apple pie and custard.

I usually buy them for the pooch :-)


And whenever I dish them up, the SO says "Great, now you're feeding me dog
food!!"

Pain is your friend, your ally, it will tell you when you are seriously
injured, it will keep you awake and angry, and remind you to finish the
job and get the hell home. But you know the best thing about pain?

It lets you know you're not dead yet!

I like doing the 'wing things' for a starter/finger food, when we have a
dinner party.

Everyone stands around drinking and talking, and nibbling on a (jointed)
wing bit that's been marinated and then roasted in the oven.
