I spent the morning pruning the few young trees I have, and the apple tree, I'm happy with the results.
After a run on the beach for Mowgli I went to see my friend here. She was planning the meals for the family for the week ahead and writing up her shopping list. I was very impressed (and slightly jealous) by her organisation and beautiful handwritten notes for the week of food ahead. She's a great cook.
I came home then to continue on with the broth for the beef pho. It is quite an involved process. The taste was excellent but it was a bit greasy. I may have done something wrong with the meat, or my homemade chicken stock was greasy.
