Thai chicken curry. One of my favourites.

Ooh, I would like to have a go at that as well Liz. :smile: Works every time and is delicious. Enjoy Ingredients 1.5 to 1.7 kg corned silverside 1 tbsp brown sugar 1 tbsp white vinegar 1 onion cut in half 4 cloves 6 peppercorns 1 bay leaf 3 cups water Method Rinse the meat under cold running water ...

I cook it myself, would you believe, in the microwave. Not a clove of garlic in sight. I will send you the recipe for next time if you wish. I wouldn't buy it from the supermarket any more.

That looks delicious Stanley. Chicken chops with hot peri peri sauce and roast veggies. I will be forever grateful to Maz for introducing me to this delightful sauce.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on this site but it’s been a miserable few months. My Mum died and I must admit, now that I’ve got used to the idea, it was time. She refused food for so long she weighed only 33 kg when she died at 92 years old. Exactly a month later my husband’s 95-year-old Uncl...

I agree Stanley, it certainly makes it easier when chasing family history. Not so applicable these days though, even if people do get married women tend not to change their name. I think that's a good idea.

I feel alright in myself. Still have dreadful pain, trouble walking, and trouble peeing. I'd rather be home to be honest. But I have an awful feeling I may have to pack a bag and head to the city...

Thinking of you. Sending positive thoughts.

Missed dinner yesterday because I was visiting, I just had a meat pie and a piece of Ursula's cake. (It would have been bad manners to refuse!) Beef and veggie stew for tea.

Didn't you count that as a meal Stanley?

My son has had a lizard living in his garden for years. He saw it often and so did the dog - but dog never bothered the lizard and lizard never bothered the dog. Nine weeks ago, son had a sleeper wall rebuilt ( where lizard lived), so he relocated the lizard to a quiet area of a nearby bush creek. ...

( gosh it is hard to walk with a numb foot and rubber leg!)

My foot and leg are still numb. I'm accustomed to it now. I did have to work hard to make my leg work properly though. Have faith Maz, you will work it out.

Have you Liz? Everyone I speak to from hospital cleaners to nurses to volunteers say "Don't have the spinal needle as it does no good". But I am quite desperate. I agreed to it out of desperation! Please give me any advice you can. Let me start by saying I had a prolapsed disc which I think is slig...

Oh Maz, sending lots of love and support. Been there, it's awful.

Peri peri chicken here. Thank you once again Maz, for introducing me to this fantastic sauce.

42 degrees in Melbourne today. Way too hot.

I'm so sorry to hear that Wendy. I still miss our Connie who died almost 2 years ago of a brain tumour aged almost 16. It's so sad to lose a family member.

Maz, I only ever cooked a duck once. It looked huge compared to the normal size chicken that would have fed about 6 people. When I cooked it there was next to no meat on it. Very disappointing. I hope yours is more of a success than mine.

A hardy hole?

Is the mark called a touch mark? Made by Mr Warric?

I saw this on Facebook and it tickled my fancy. Merry Christmas everyone.

How dreadful Moh. I hope things improve quickly.

Sue and Maz I thought you would appreciate this. At a sewing class a couple of weeks ago friends asked what were we all doing in the afternoon. I replied that at the very least I had to dust and vacuum. One women said "why, is someone visiting this afternoon? I only dust if someone is coming." I hav...

I understand exactly how you feel Stanley. The kennels I took my dog to made a point of pairing the dogs with another friendly, same size / aged dog so that they had company. The older dogs were all inside with access to outside when they needed and they had either beds on the ground for the ones wh...

( I was blunt, as usual).

I like to call it pragmatic Maz.

Pork chops on the BBQ here for us.

Excellent news Stanley.
