Thank you Taxlady it will be lovely to get to know you

Hello, I was last on DC in 2009. Thought I might reintroduce myself. I am Kenyan living in Switzerland. Love to cook love food. Before, I spent hours in the kitchen, a medical condition knocked me back a bit so I take longer to prepare food because I cannot stand for long. Luckily my two lovely...

Funnily I was thinking of having Raclette tonight, but realized we had a bit too much to eat over the autumn holidays in England, so we will give it a miss. Yes we do have meat, but only sausages and dried cured meat, but we have different flavored cheese. My favourite is garlic cheese. To use...

Just a few of the dishes we have cooked.

England's buzzing with the Royal wedding(me not so much) but it got me wondering,, if you were treated to a royal wedding dinner, what would you expect. Cucumber sandwiched without crusts?

Reading The Winner stands Alone by Paulo Coelho

DC today! I haven't had any messages from threads I have posted for a long while, so I stopped visiting, but got one today and couldn't help but smile. Now I have several and I am smiling more.

I always use Pecorino romano cheese and not Permesan and just the egg yolk and discard the egg white.

As kids we used to hear the mosque prayers wherever we were playing and start heading home for lunch. At dinner time our househelp would go outside and yell our names at the top of her voice and we knew what it was about. Here, I just say, "Lunch's ready" or "Dinner's ready"

Risotto Milanese salad and garlic bread:smile:.

My mum always told me to wash rice to get the dirt out of it, but I learned also that if you wash it, you get some unnecessary starch out of it and keeps you a little bit trimmer.

Leith's Fish Bible.:chef:

Re-reading Don't Wake Me At Doyles By Maura Murphy. It's a remarkable memoir. It's incredible.

Had apple tea and croissant

Unless it's cheese, don't put it in your mouth lol! I actually hate it when that happens. I am sort of phobic about green stuff growing hair, I found a pea that had white hair and freaked out. Scares the heck out of me.

Shepherd's pie and green salad. We just had it. Was great, hubby and kids enjoyed it and for me that's the whole purpose of cooking:chef:.

JoAnn L, I am sorry to hear about your grief. Dealing with something like that can be very difficult, you need support from friends and family, and do not be shy to ask them if you feel overwhelmed. Counseling can help as they help you see the situation in a totally different light that...

I'd say monkfish based on the fact that it's meaty and does not flake, so it can hold the various flavours well. Goodluck

We use an induction stove from De Dietrich and I find them amazing. It's hard to burn anything, and kids can't turn it on unless they use the right pots and pans. It's so easy to keep clean as it has no hidden places one has to look for to clean as it's flat.

I find that one year our cherry tree produces lots of fruits and the following year, not that much. Last year we didn't have much to pick, but come this year, we are inviting friends to come over and pick some. I have noticed a few other cherry trees in the neighbourhood doing the same, so I...

Nah! I usually don't exercise over the weekends.
