Custard tarts

One final comment on Lisbon: on our to do list
was "sample portugese custard tarts while in
Portugal."
We liked them so much we had some more while
waiting for our delayed flight home.
Even the airport version of this local treat was
delicious!
Ah well back to the diet now!

Lunch (2)

with tomatoes, green lentils &

this time we substituted fahita

spices for the recommended

curry powder. Serve with salad

Lunch

We enjoyed lunch Portugese style sitting
outside in the sun on our weekend away last
week. Feeling happy that we didn't pick this
weekend to visit as Portugal and Spain have
been lashed with storms this weekend.

Instead this weekend I stayed at home

Did lots of laundry
Shopped for new wool
Went to a friends birthday party
Caught up with lots of old friends (at the party)
Sewed some more patchwork
Shopped for groceries
Ate Aubergine pie with tomatoes & green lentils

Food Glorious Food

Just returned from a weekend in Scotland
visiting family. The travelling was horrific -
anyone contemplating travelling by Easyjet
should take note that it is anything BUT easy!
In fact it is more like a giant obstacle course
with as many difficulties put it in the travellers
path as possible - the moral of the story is that
as ever you get what you pay for and when you
don't pay much you don't get much!
Travelling aside the weekend was fab especially
the food which included the puddings above
served on gorgeous flower printed plates.
