Mar. 9th, 2008 06:51 pmMy silver chafing dish is actually silver-plated copper (which I wanted to confirm, but I rather suspected) but I can't date it. I shall use it for making a Gillianish form of coddled eggs on days when I'm too tired to cook properly. All I need now is to make and freeze packets of that 1920s Creole sauce I tested last week, for use alongwith.
Thanks to Kate and Jenny I got all my shopping done today. My day went shop/chat then sleep then shop/chat some more then sleep some more. I'm not rested, but I'm no longer scared of time going backwards. I'm also much less intimidated by life, since I have lovely foodstuffs to get me by the next little while. My lunches for the week will be leek and chestnut soup, for instance and I have amazing goat yoghourt and even more amazing cheese for breakfasts.
I envy people of robust health. If they run out of things they can dash out and buy something. This is why it's so very reassuring to have meals sorted out in advance. Even if the week turns to high pain, I shall eat well and healthily and enjoy the teaching. And if it doesn't turn to high pain, then I can do more than teach.
I love shopping with friends, for a whole bunch of reasons, but I especially love it when they are fellow foodies and we can get excited together about male zucchini flowers and green Ethiopian coffee beans.
