Most of you are so ... industrious!! After 40 years of diligent dinner cooking for one dearly beloved husband, I am sooo tired of cooking daily!!
(That's not counting the times we ate in restaurants. But here, where we have lived for the last 15 years -- coastal village -- we don't have great eating-out places!)
As a guy was coming to fix a few problems with my gas hob plus 2 ceramic plates + check ovens, I bought frozen stuff from a reliable food market, as I knew I might not be able to use the stove: he was coming late.
But, yikes, it's never the same as home-cooked!!!
Lovely-looking fish portions (but it's mashed fish and not decent straight fillets

), paprika potato wedges for oven roasting (okay), and a quite nice mix of veggies and sauce for the micro.
We have great vine-ripened tomatoes from the farm garden, so I sliced a plate-full, with sweet onions and chopped basil.
Aaaand ... I had my favourite dry rosé wine!
Goodnight from South Africa!! Went a looong way to do shopping today and I am exhausted!
