Slow food was the winner

This evening Simon and I were totally not in the mood for cooking a meal. The kids had a quickie meal cooked for them and we were going to pop out later for fast food.

Well, I was down in the garden doing a bit of watering and realised there was plenty of food ready for picking and I just couldn't resist putting a meal together in my mind and looked forward to it. In the end, the thought of a fresh garden salad, corn on the cobb with melted butter, roasted potatoes with grated cheese on top and a couple of our own free range eggs just couldn't be beat.

LOL Rach. Yeah, Nathan likes cauli too, not my favourite! The strange thing I found was that I *really* wanted to eat that dinner over the other one once I was down there amongst it all (and not coz I felt guilty it was sitting there uneaten lol) - such a cool thing to happen.
