Red curry with fellow residents at a great little Thai restaurant in Almost Heaven. Back in my own bed tonight!!! - for one night before a coal mine tour tomorrow. Bliss.

Tonight same as last night, a take on chowder:
Sweet potato, haddock and spinach soup with a little bit of horseradish and lemon.
Not home made, but very tasty all the same, finishing off the container tonight.

And day-dreaming about payday. Just one more sleep!
Okay the soup was from Waitrose but it was reduced to 99p and the result of a surprise Euromillions win. Limping to the end of a boring month food-wise. Then six days of excitement, then back to working on my target. Which might be boring, but it'll be for a reason other than that the cupboard is bare.

The excitement will also be low fat but I may sneak in a naughty treat or two, too.
It's the knowing that I can if I want to that gives me the pleasure.

ETA Ali, I'd give up my antipathy for lamb if it was served to me that way.

Seems like a weird combination, but I like all those things, so I bet I would like that soup.

The best Indian food I've ever had ... at Rasika, in DC. If you're ever in DC, do try this place. Small plates are $7-9 and very generous. The balance of flavors and spices is out of this world.

Took two of my sons out to Pesce tonight, also in DC. Very good cocktails, very good food - seasoned well, cooked well. Very tasty. Not quite the experience of Rasika, but worth trying.

For the rest of the weekend I'm eating salad. Once daily. Lots of cycling.

Aliantha · 10-27-2013, 06:14 PM

Lasagne and salad last night. Tonight, leftovers.
