People and Views

Yesterday I went out for the first time with my new camera and took photos of people and views.  here are a few.

Two photos late afternoon outside my apartment

In the evening I had friends in for dinner.  The expensive small chicken from the new butcher was delicious.  (The previous one retired a millionaire after my visit last year)!
I made Nigelissima’s Italian Roast Chicken which went down very well.

Today I am cooked Musetto con fagioli piccanti.  Venetian sausage with beans.  It has taken 3 hours and several bowls of washing up to make but it looks and smells delicious.  Last night David told me it was a Venetian speciality for Epiphany.  Just a couple of weeks late.

Here is my Venetian sausage stew

Now I feel ready for a siesta but I must get more on the blog then get ready to go to Jeremy’s soiree at 6.00pm.
