Sep. 23rd, 2005 10:32 amChums from work over for dinner last night and very pleasant it was too.
I spent a large proportion of the day cooking and eventually served up:-
Melon, watercress, rocket and proscuitto salad. Paella (chorizo, chicken, prawns, squid, mussels - and rice obv.). Summer fruit and apple tart with homemade custard.
Fo some reason I don't cook paella very often and it was a little bit too wet. I should have been more aggressive with the heat in the final stages. Tsk.
Up hideously early this morning (given the hangover) to take the cat to the vet. He is a martyr to fleas - which is very unusual for him. The vet remarked smilingly that there is a major flea problem this year because it has been damp and warm the last few weeks. She was smiling because she charged me £26.00 for the magic anti-flea stuff.
