I can see the moon tonight , blessed be the beautiful lady ; this is my first sighting this month , I think.

Can't get into Gmail ; google says " Sever error - try again in 30 seconds " .. :)) .... it's been 30 minutes now Pffft :( :roll:

Gunilla came round this morning to help me write an important letter in Swedish, bless her. I am so grateful. She was grateful for lunch ; freshly made spicey cream of carrot soup, which did turn out well. Here's the recipe , should you like to try it.

About 4 big carrots peeled and grated
I large onion , chopped
Sauteed in olive oil till soft
(I do this in my iron cauldron, slow heat for quite a while 15 minutes or so, stirring occasionally )
Next add litre or so organic veggie stock and allow to simmer for 20 minutes or so.
( no stress in miraland )

Then ... add a lump of frozen curry paste that I have prepared previously and keep in the freezer ,

Now if you haven't got that , add a few chilli flakes ( for zing ) turmeric ( for yellow colour ) tomato purée , koriander, ginger , couple of garlic cloves, and some crushed cumin and garam masala...... all to taste.

Finally blitz it in a food mixer or use hand mixer till all smooth . Heat and add dolop of cream and a little sherry .. gives it a nice lift.

serve with cheese and crusty bread. :)

So tired today and have had headache on and off . Will get an early night , I think.

hugs and kisses xxx :wave:
