The amount of times we cook is certainly not the exact amount of times I take the time to photograph, write and edit a blog post. I thought I’d share with you some of our un-edited lunches and dinners. If you’re definitely interested in any of the recipes, just leave a comment and I’ll try to get it up as soon as I can.
Lunch cookery is normally done by me, since M. doesn’t really do big lunches. Dinner is more of his arena, and we share the tasks, making various components, testing out techniques and flavors but trying to keep the portions small. Enjoy this pictorial tour of our daily eats!

Good lord, but you people eat well! That does it; I’m coming to visit. 🙂
Wait! What? You got married?! Well, it was about time, you know how to cook. 🙂
Congratulations my dear, you have my very best wishes. Married life can be a source of bliss (I’ve been hitched for erm… 15 years I think). May your married life be happy, successful and forever. He is a very lucky lad.
Love your first meal as Mr. and Mrs. Murray! That sure has a nice ring to it 🙂
I do all the cooking since I live alone!
Figs and cranberries together? Yum! Love your first meal.
Yes, everything looks really yum! I need to make that Cauliflower and Potato tart. I love making the fake mashed with cauliflower.
Latin (Caribbean foods) are my “go to”, sure thing fav foods: rice & beans, chuleta y ensalada de aguacate no doubt! I’ve managed to make healthier versions of foods including rice & pigeon peas with brown rice!
