Nourishment.

One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.

-- Virginia Woolf, A Room of One's Own


After yesterday's wild drive, I decided that a day indoors was called for. When I got back yesterday, I went to the supermarket and bought lots of groceries along with ingredients for three new recipes I've never made before. It took me ages because I didn't know where anything was!

Now, I have never been a fan of the kitchen, so making two of those recipes today was a major achievement for me ... For lunch it was Red Pepper & Butternut Squash Soup, and then for dinner I made Chicken Korma. When I told my mum over the phone, I think she just about fell off her chair!
