Hi Magda -
thanks for those ideas. I need to just sit myself down and work it all out. It will save me so much time in the long run but I keep putting it off. One of these days!!

I hope you will work everyday dishes.
It may be good idea to cook more over a weekend and eat it during the week. Stuff like chilli con carne, or any mix like that is great as you can eat with rice, put it in tortilla or crepes and you don’t need to spent too much time cooking it.
I hate planning, but I know it’s useful, so good luck.

[...] I am trying two new variations. The first is plum, ginger and lime jam, inspired by a recipe from Graciebakes, but based on the proportions of plums and sugar that I got from my visitor. And the second is a [...]

Beautiful photos. It’s good to hear you had good time. I can bear commuting if I can read or listen audiobooks, but still it’s better not to commute. I’m waiting for your new posts.
Happy New Year!

Thanks for such a lovely compliment SJ!
That salad sounds great – I must try that soon. I love the zing of Thai food – lime juice and coriander are two of my favourite things.
And when you perfect your tomato sauce make sure to pass on the recipe.

I love cooking savoury dishes more than baking really … adore thai food as so simply amazing flavours and tastes can be created from what seem like insignificant or unpleasant ingredients .. fish sauce for example smells awful but add in some lime juice, bitta soy sauce & brown sugar drizzle over cucumbers and its a salad like no other! Tomato sauce is my other great love.. or trying to perfect it is ..I’m nearly there! Cooking is my favourite thing .. takes away the stress of a day at work.. its nice to do something you’re good at that doesn’t have targets or deadlines to ruin the fun!
Keep up the blogging and I love the out take shot , you look beautiful!

Naomi – thanks so much for your sweet comments. I really appreciate them.
Now I did not know that stress shows in your food – that is new to me, but it makes sense 100%. I love the idea of using food to tend to peoples basic needs. It is so true but it is often forgotten now with people merely seeing food as a means to an end (energy). I think slowing down and listening to some Jazz sounds just blissful.
Thanks for sharing.
