Pasta, bad planning and running late - not in that order

I knew today was coming. I've been saying so. Regularly. For a while. Then:

I have a "proper" anniversary post half written in my head. It will appear before my Hive birthday month is out. In the meantime, as often happens of late, I'm in a month-end crunch and am feeling a little behind.

My planning went to hell in a hand basket for this week and last evening's pasta.

I loaded it with fresh marjoram and made a balsamic blend of onion marmalade, robot🚦peppers and some braaied pork neck.

It's a combination of fresh, sweet and smoky that I shall do again. Of course, there was a salad antipasti.

Nothing creative this time!

With that, it's back to the day job...

Until next time, be well

Post script

If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:

  • re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I am adding them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
  • and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.
I blog to the Hive blockchain using a number of decentralised appplications.
  • From Wordpress, I use the Exxp Wordpress plugin. If this rocks your socks, click here or on on the image below to sign up.

  • Join Hive using this link and then join us in the Silver Bloggers' community by clicking on the logo.

  • lastly, graphics are created using partly my own photographs, images available freely available on @hive.blog and Canva.

Things can easily get out of control but it's good that you have excellent pasta to compensate.

Nope. It's a real South Africanism and I generally choose my words more carefully when I'm writing for a more "catholic" audience... We have a few of these...

Market prep underway as I write... Thank you for the wishes!

oh yes, I understand about writing for a more "catholic" audience, I think each country has plenty of its own ...isms ;)
