WEDNESDAY
15th/ OCTOBER 2014.
So no lie
in this morning as its ‘Curry Day’ here in sunny Manilva; we had our usual
breakfast and then I got myself sorted to make tonight’s supper “ Chicken Curry
with Basmati Rice ” The smells are already wafting up the street and as the
locals pass they pause and take it in!
I’ve used
diced Breast, Leg & Thigh as usual, they are dusted in seasoned flour and
browned off, the sauce is made with diced Onions & Fuji Apple, Pineapple
chunks and baby Button Mushrooms, Lime & Mango juice with a dash of Lea & Perrins
and Tabasco sauce, three curry Powders and four curry pastes, Mango Chutney and
Desiccated Coconut and a good strong Chicken & Vegetable stock. Brenda is
in charge as it ‘cooks off’ and thickens up! With it we are having on the side
Garden Peas and Banana and Mango slices along with Brenda’s famous ‘Basmati Rice’ See below.
Later this
morning ‘Scruffy’ was picked up; he’s back for a three night sleep-over on
Friday, which reminds us that he’s with us over Xmas this year! ‘Reina’ is back
tomorrow and then next week we are sorting the days out as we have a hospital
appointment over in Marbella for some eye checks for Brenda on Tuesday late
afternoon, also its nearly time for our friend & Daniela’s, Barbara to have
her baby which means that we are going to see more of ‘Reina’ as she looks
after her on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays! Watch this space.
Today it’s
a little overcast but the sun is nearly breaking through at the moment, over
the next couple of days and the weekend it staying warm and sunny with the temperatures
at around 25/26degs, the wet stuff is just missing us, the very large front in
the Atlantic caused by three hurricanes/cyclones behind it is missing Spain and
heading towards the UK – sorry! Batten down the hatches ‘up north’ in Skelton!!
No films to
mention so far this week, we have just been channel hopping after the main
news.

for the Day; See above.
