*DINNER*


Today was a VERY slow day for me...........not even caffeine could kickstart my day!!!

I met some fellow african ladies for tea & snacks.........we bid so long to Nora who's heading back to Kenya in a week........*BON VOYAGE*

Tonight I decided to try the CHUNKY SAUSAGE & TOMATO PASTA-the dish was empty within minutes........*see attached picture*

Have a good evening everyone.......I'm off to bed soon with my CSI boxset & a cuppa rooibos tea........

**LUNCH TODAY**


Living in Sri Lanka we have been indeed spoiled with all the amazing spices & flavours readily available at every store on almost every street corner......

Today I decided to make some veggie soup & chicken curry & rice.I prefer thai rice as it cooks softer & has a better texture in my mouth......*wink

I am now sat at my dining room table with a generous portion of curry washed down with a good 'ol plonk.......(read glass of wine:)

Bon Apetit(ty) to me......:)
