What did you cook or eat today (November 2020)?

I used to throw away the leaves and outer bits of cauliflower, but realised this was very wasteful, so they get used now. You get a surprising amount from them and I made a (kind of) cauliflower cheese without a single floret. With a few added extras - leek, mushroom, tomato and garlic - it made for quite a tasty concoction.

I haven't added a photo simply because it's a bit of a tortuous process at the moment. For reasons unknown, this laptop now decides it's going to seize up if I put in any kind of USB device. You can do it eventually, but only by inordinate faffing about. However, like Baldrick, I have a cunning plan.

Cauliflower outer leaves are very nice also for making soups.
I often make them

Last nights dinner. Roast chicken thighs and wings in spicy BBQ sauce, with my home made backed beans. Pud was pomegranate jewels and an orange from our neighbors tree.

Been painting (polyurethane actually) balistrades ready for new carpet on Monday morning. So it's 6 pm here Saturday and I just made a sammich of corned beef and chow chow. One of my fave sammiches. Nice thick juicy it was too. Bread from a local baker baked this morning.

That corned beef looks very good mate. If chow chow is the same as piccalilli I would murder it after huffing the lacquer.

Vegetarian gluten-free pizza for dinner

I notice you often eat gluten free pizza. I would never choose that unless I was gluten intolerant. Its almost impossible to make a decent gluten free pizza dough. I'm curious... why do you choose it?

A little for a change and a little because I don't mind the gluten-free one. I still prefer standard pizza, but I've also noticed that the standard one, especially eating it in the evening, sometimes gives me some problems of digestibility, while the gluten-free one doesn't.

So we had a very luxurious treat today. Seafood is very expensive where I live. But we wanted to celebrate our anniversary in style, and as our party couldnt happen on holiday or in a restaurant this year we ordered this spread for the two of us. I made a Hollandaise to go with it.

Lobster, crab, prawns and mussels. It was delicious !
