Alrighty, then.

Did those "walnuts" have little crosses on them? Hmm?

Yesterday I roasted a nice pork loin roast.
I gently marinated it in Ponzu overnight, then lovingly nestled it, fat side up, on a comfy bed of new potatoes, fresh diced pineapple, copious onion chunks, and pieces of celery instead of on a rack. Then put the pineapple juice and more Ponzu in the roasting pan.

It was soo succulent, soo good!
Just brimming with porky goodness.

Due to circumstances beyond our control my wife never got her requested birthday supper on her birthday. The first meal I ever cooked for her, though in those days the pasta was bought and the clams were canned.

That's very thoughtful, Hank. Looks good!

The missus gets a random fruit and veg box each week (so cheap, highly recommended) and this cantaloupe melon came out which is fine; cut it open and it's a tiny watermelon -my favourite!

Out for dinner

Tbh the muscles needed more garlic, shallots, parsley, lime, cream and wine, and the scallops needed more browning, butter, and strong accompaniments (there's a reason it's often served with pancetta, pea puree and black pudding). The crab was lost in the croquettes really. The duck was great though, and a superb view.

Aah the woes of a food snob.

Eating at my desk. I Hot-smoked a turkey breast last night and made a Scotch bonnet peach bourbon BBQ sauce to go with it. Leftovers on a sandwich.

Those scallops really do look under seared.
