I never seem to be able to post my "plans for today" until the end of the day, which sort of defeats the objective.

Anyway....
I
planned to do a quick supermarket run and pick up some fresh chiles, onions, vinegar, etc., in order to make some hot honey sauce.
That worked out fine. Wife was going off to play canasta this afternoon, so I thought "great, got the kitchen to myself, plenty of time, etc."
Got back home after a successful supermarket run, had something to eat, and then the canasta game was cancelled.
The ventilator in the oven was sounding strange, so I called the technician. He usually arrives 2 or 3 days later.
Wife left about 1pm, and the technician arrived at 1.10pm, so that was "no cooking"until he'd finished.
At 4pm.
10 minutes later, wife arrived, starving hungry, cooking some steak ( because she's going for the world record of "being on a diet - rocking and gaining weight since 1981 " .
No cooking yet.
Finally got into the kitchen around 5pm and discovered I'd got no garlic - for the hot sauce.
Change of plans: make a chile con carne (done); prep veg for piccalilli (done); make Kashmiri paneer masala (done); eat dinner (not yet done).
See you in an hour!
