FRIDAY 19th/
SEPTEMBER 2014.
No sign of
any of the wet stuff as forecast for today as we shot down to the local market
for some fresh flowers after a quick breakfast; its warm and sunny Manilva at
its best but its still possible that it will come back over the weekend – watch
this space!
We then
carried on down to Sabinillas and picked up the papers from the bookshop before
our regular weekly shop at ‘Mercadona’ After unloading I shot around to the
butchers for our Saturday night ‘Steak Chispa’ has been here all morning
playing around our feet and going down to our local shop in the street with
Brenda.
Andy called
in at noon and helped me sort out both PCs; we cleared a lot files and history,
closed some unwanted files and downloaded the picture files to the hard drive,
it’s cleared the memories and everything it a lot faster now! Thanks Andy!
So tonight
we are having ‘Hake Filets’ which are our favorite at the moment, they have a
great flavor and they poach and stay firm, so they are ideal for tonight’s
classic dish of ‘Hake Duglere’ I will make the sauce this evening with finely
chopped Shallots, Tomato Concasse, a good slug of Brenda’s White Wine, a
fish/veloute stock, seasonings to taste and finished with a dash of Cream and
lots of chopped Parsley ( Brenda!); we are having Saffron New Potatoes and
Garden Peas.
After
supper we will find a film to watch, last night a bit later on I watched
another live concert from the ‘Jazz San Javier Festival’- this one was modern
jazz which I’m not a great favorite of but the musicology?! of the players was
spectacular; Lee Ritenour on guitar,Dave Grusin on piano/keyboards together
with the double bass player and the drummer with a very large kit – when they
did ‘Solos’ it was mesmerizing!
Thought for
the Day See above.
