WEDNESDAY 9th/OCTOBER
2013.
This
morning we were up with the birds and after our tea and toast we shot across to
the hospital past Marbella for my appointment with our regular lady consultant
in the Dermatology department; the blood circulation problem that is effecting
my legs is better but I still needed some local injections (5/6) in the active
areas and she has given me another prescription for a steroid cream to be used
with caution! She also gave Brenda the once over and gave her some ointment for
her eyelids and suggested the she make an appointment to come back for a
further check.
The weather
once again is beautiful with warm sunshine and a little breeze by mid-morning
and the forecast is now good for over the weekend as well. Anna called in later
this morning for a chat as I was making tonight’s supper.Later she called back in with Fabio after picking him up from school and collected their container of the casserole for tonight!
“Tarragon
Pork Casserole with Vegetables” I’ve made two pans, one using the Pork
‘Costillas’- chopped Pork Ribs that Mano dropped off when their deep freeze was
off (Still is!) and one using the diced Pork Loin that I bought yesterday; the
casseroles sauce was made with Garlic, Carrots, Celery, Leeks, Onions, Green
Beans, Mushrooms, Garden Peas, Broad Beans and White Beans and assorted Green,
Yellow and Red Peppers! All cooked in a rich Vegetable stock with Tarragon and
my secret ingredients before adding the browned off Pork to the pans and
leaving to cook, at the end I add a cream Volute sauce to taste!
The
plumbers/maintenance men have just called in to fix our hot water in the
kitchen, the pressure is low due to the ‘Cal ’ in the local water so the boiler
does not kick in- all fixed and working, I made the call just over an hour ago!
Brenda is
looking forward to a day off tomorrow before the weekend celebrations take off
with the Grand opening of the new park and Museum on Saturday with the village Brass Band,dancers and singers,wine & beer and party snacks for the kids! This morning as we
where going out they were just starting to finish the Mosaic Mural on the wall
behind the wine crushing pit, when we came back it was nearly done as you can
see in the picture below, it’s now official I’ am the one in the middle with
the Blue trousers with Mario and Diego the two councilors either side!!! The
finished wall pictures will be above later.
Tonight
after supper we try and find a film to watch.
Thought for
the Day; See above.
