Giorno 14


It was a long day at the office. I'm just going to let the picture and food speak for themselves, ladies and gents.

Tomorrow morning I shall (hopefully) sleep and restore my depleted energy levels.

All my best to all of you.

Hi Harry,

Looking forward to the commentary as usual hehehe. And ok, I've come around, I'll be popping out to the shops as soon as I've finished my blog surfing to get the ingredients for the burrito in a bowl! :)

Hi Harry,

Thanks for the burrito recipe! I don't think seasoned mince exists around here... or maybe only in boutique shops. I'll just add some cayenne, paprika, a few other odds and sods. How does that sound? :)

Yum. (I think I said that yesterday too!)

Your pictures are encouraging me to do a little more creative cooking.

cheers-

That sounds good to me, Erika. :)

Let me know what you think when you try it.

Just one thing, remember that the sour cream mellows things out. So, if you like your "burrito" spicy, add lots of hot stuff. The spicy sauce I use it very, very spicy!

Thanks, Sybil. :)

But, I must place credit where it rightfully belongs. My lovely wife prepared that yummy salmon dish for us. But, I did cook the rib eye last night!

What can I say? We're a team to the end!

PS - Just about everything that we cook is super simple to make. Fast, little prep work, snappy clean-up, etc.

The only exception is that we occasionally use a slow-cooker for certain recipes. I think we may do that over the weekend.

Look out for the pictures!

Have a great weekend.

Back at ya, NewVision.

It's hard to believe but it's sunny and in the low 70's over here! Some Winter!

Never heard of Also Salt, but it looks awesome! Lysine prevents cold sore break-outs and I take it in spades when I feel one coming on. Definitely going to look into the Also Salt. Thanks!!

The food looks yummy!
