Madarat lehet vele fogatni



Just a quick one this evening, I'm so tired I could eat a horse (that's how tired I am!)

Here is a picture taken on my way home from one of my favourite shops in town Spice World. As a fan of all manner of cuisine, this is one of the best places to go to find ingredients from all over the world. As a particular fan of Hungarian food, I always like to browse the wide range of paprika available here.

As always, I am on the lookout for tasty recipes for Henry and I to try from all over the world, so if anyone cares to help us out, links in the comments page would be much appreciated.

Over and out!

It's wonderful that you're exposing Henry to all kinds of cuisines. Maybe because you started him so young you'll avoid the "picky eater" syndrome. (I just made that name up, LOL)

When my girls were little, my older daughter would always eat just about anything. The younger? Well, 50 per cent is kinda good, isn't it?

Both are adventurous eaters now that they're grown up, though...so maybe the success rate is really 100 per cent. ;-)

hm! I'm naive about the subtle differences between paprikas.

well, I'd posted this recipe for Korean ribs a little while ago. Add a couple tablespoons of cider vinegar to it and it's delicious. You only have to marinade the meat 4 or 5 hours.

Mark and I have been trying to cook Indian food, but we really love everything. Henry will be less a picky eater than a fearless one, but he'll also probably have high standards, which has it's own shortfalls.

Great blog! I'll have to come back when I have more time.

EGTG, He is a pretty good eater. He loves spaghetti carbonara and dahl. He tries pretty much everything, so we can’t complain on that score. We like to eat all sorts in this house, so he’ll go alright!

Boise Diva, I will be honest and say that I like the Különleges best, but I’ll eat any!

Neva, it is. It also smells great!

Mirage2g, I don’t know how people coped before access to spices!

Kitty, it’s well worth exploring the world of paprika!

Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it...

I still have the robot on the job. Here you can see the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery . And here is a poem: Soliloquy for One Dead Bruce Dawe Ah, no, Joe, you never knew the whole of it, the whistling which is only the wind in the chimney's smoking belly, the footsteps on the muddy path that are always somebody else's. I think of your limbs down there, softly becoming mineral, the life of grasses, and the old love of you thrusts the tears up into my eyes, with the family aware and looking everywhere else. Sometimes when summer is over the land, when the heat quickens the deaf timbers, and birds are thick in the plumbs again, my heart sickens, Joe, calling for the water of your voice and the gone agony of your nearness. I try hard to forget, saying: If God wills, it must be so, because of His goodness, because- but the grasshopper memory leaps in the long thicket, knowing no ease. Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it... I like Bruce Dawe. He just my be my favourite Austral...

There was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong.

Here is a self portrait. I’m calling it Portrait of a lady in a dirty window . Shocking, isn’t it? However, it is apt! Samhain , Nos Galan Gaeaf , Hop-tu-Naa , All Saints , All Hallows , Hallowmas , Hallowe'en or HALLOWEEN . It’s Theme Thursday and we’re talking about the festivals traditionally held at the end of the harvest season. Huh? No wonder Australians have trouble with the concept of HALLOWEEN. For the record, in my thirty-two L O N G years on the planet, I can’t say I’ve ever seen ghosts ‘n goblins, trick ‘n treaters or Michael Myers stalking Tasmania’s streets at the end of October. [That said, I did once see a woman as pale as a ghost turning tricks that looked like Michael Myers in late November one time.] Despite the best efforts of Hollywood, sitcoms, and innumerable companies; it seems Australians are impervious to the [ahem] charms of a corporatized variant of a celebration of the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darke...

In dreams begin responsibilities.

A life at sea, that's for me, only I just don't have the BREAD. That's right, Theme Thursday yet again and I post a photo of a yacht dicking about in Bass Strait just off Wynyard. The problem is, I am yet again stuck at work, slogging away, because I knead need the dough . My understanding is that it is the dough that makes the BREAD. And it is the BREAD that buys the yacht. On my salary though, I will be lucky to have enough dough or BREAD for a half dozen dinner rolls. Happy Theme Thursday people, sorry for the rush.
