THURSDAY 12th/
DECEMBER 2013.
This
morning after our breakfast I prepared some good old fashioned “Chicken
Maryland” – using the Chicken boned-out leg & thigh, I floured, egg-washed
and then bread crumbed the pieces – I added to the fresh breadcrumbs salt
&,pepper, mixed herbs, Paprika and some secret ingredients ( My version is
more like Kentucky-Fried !) with also Banana slices and whole Onion rings
getting the coating ! Then they will all be deep fried in vegetable oil along
with some smoked Bacon slices, my Tomato salsa will be served on the side!!
We then
went for a long walk around the village with Chispa as you can see in the
picture above; the new small square at the top of Calle Mar is starting to take
shape, Calle Loboto is nearly finished by the Plaze Pozo del Rey, the church is
due to be ready in February which will be just in time for the ‘Semana Santa’ celebrations,
the new passage way is also taking shape and finally we came back across ‘Plaza
de la Vendimia’
Brenda is
having a washing day as the forecast if for some of the wet stuff by Saturday;
tomorrow we are out on our usual shopping morning which is looking like a large
one as we stock up for Xmas.( Friday 13th !) The Xmas Carol concert
this year, is a week today and is taking place down in the large Multipurpose
Hall down by the sports complex; lets hope they have arranged some extra
heaters as it’s a rather cold place at any time!
We have had
an e-mail from Gillian over in Torquay to say that she is settling in after
having problems with her internet connections –enjoy your new home and we look
forward to welcoming you back to ‘Little’ sunny Manilva next year!
Last night
we watched a rather strange film called “ A Love Song for Bobby Long ” from
2004 with John Travolta, Gabriel Macht?! and the very watch able Scarlett
Johansson – based in the back streets of old New Orleans
Thought for
the Day; See above.
