Ha, Cookie, real escapism. I’m reading Chancellor, Angela Markel, by Kati Marton. It’s very interesting as during our life time. The writing is clear but uninspiring.

Made ‘Spring Rolls’ based on lots of cabbage and other veggies but added thin slices of beef and some curry powder. Microwaved everything first and cooled before wrapping in Spring Rolls pastry. Cooked 10 minutes in AF. Better than I expected.

Marina, sounds lovely and fresh for this hot weather. Another hot day. Hate it. I’ve cancelled a coffee catch up. Too hot.
Dinner last night. Opened a small tin of Salmon and ate it with a spoon. 21

Made 11 jars of berry and plum jam. Used Pomegranate juice instead of water for extra flavour boost.
Cauliflower when grated does smell like cabbage to me. I’m rather sensitive to smells so others may not have the same reaction. 22

Back to Tai Chi and Probus Mah Jong today. It’s going to be hot but both places have A/C so should be ok.

Salmon cooked outside on the Ninja BBQ. Salad.
Had visitors and cooked lamb cutlets on Ninja. They returned home and immediately ordered a Ninja. 25

Thanks Marina, that really is funny.
I’ve finally got the Solar panels switched on and am looking at what appliances use the most electricity. The TMX , so far is the top consumer. But under normal circumstances we only use it for a short time. However when I make jam, it is in constant use for 1 hour at a time. I’ll make sure that I make jam when the sun is shining. 26

Thanks Cookie and Judy. Did miss everyone.
We are in for a 4 day heatwave. I’ll be staying inside and cleaning up my Blog as well as sorting out stuff for the op shop. I’m still finding it difficult to let stuff go. 27

Tomato’s everywhere. Little ones fresh from the bushes. I found a recipe for an unusual salad. Small tomatoes cut in half, small amount of chopped mint and tinned peaches. I used small containers of diced peaches. Fresh and different.
I served this with grilled lamb cutlets , mashed potatoes and baby peas. Playing with my new Ninja BBQ, I baked a small loaf of bread . Pretty good but need to make the dough a bit wetter and bake at 180 not 200 degrees. 28

I’ve been making Cauli rice in the TMX . I’ve found that steaming it for a minute or two , in an open container , removes the cabbage smell..
