Saturday Lunch


Last Friday, I planned for some epic meals for the long weekend.

That's the problem with me. I plan for this and that and then I am unable to fulfill (most of) my plans. I was thinking of making myself a Big Breakfast, (carnivore) pizza, soup - all that amidst plans for gardening and year end spring cleaning.

So on Saturday I ended up with my usual simple unremarkable meals (which are delicious by the way), nothing like what I had in mind.

I placed fatty beef trimmings on top of a wire rack placed over a pan of Brussels sprouts and garlic. The beef came out very nicely browned and crispy (thanks to the fats).


The Brussels sprouts and garlic cloves were cooked with the beef drippings.


My meal turned out very tasty and satisfying.


Earlier in the day, as I was tinkering in my garden, Poodie decided to be cute.


She loves to flop down on the floor for attention.


Of course I had to drop whatever I was doing to snap a photo (and to give her a belly rub and a head scratch).


Auntie Girl walked up to kacau her.


hah...hah...hah...


Then Poodie got up and walked away. I guess she wasn't amused.


Dinner was six hard boiled eggs. I ate the eggs with sauerkraut and a drizzle of tamari.


I was going to start on this book when I saw this on Youtube.


That is so sad. May she rest in peace.

  4. Aiyo, why Poodie gave Auntie Girl a slap in the face hah hah 🐈😺 I like the quote, so positive! Like you, I plan to eat more "atas" and "extravagant" meals during weekends and public holidays, sometimes I accomplish my plans, at times was unable to fulfill due to unforseen circumstances. Sad to hear the pretty Korean author's demise. She is free from all the binds and suffering now, rest in peace and follow the light. Amituofo! πŸ™ May she get to the Western Pureland or go to Heaven whatever religion she believes in.
