Three, probably four, no, five photo Thursday
I spent yesterday mostly in the kitchen. Koeksisters were first up and they take most of the day.
Then it was cauliflower and leek soup which canned in jars for Saturday's market and June 18th.
Sunday's pickles now labeled to be safely stashed until 17 June when they will be picked and ready for the 18th.
Lunch on a miserable day: leftover bean chilli and sourdough rolls. Out of Paul de Jongh's lovely bowls.
Then mushroom omelette supper on Trish's pretty plates and the salad out of more of Paul's bowls.
I love using them all. All the time.
Of course, it's Friday and another day in the kitchen. A new marmalade is on the agenda. Check tomorrow's Fiday Files to find out more.
Until next time, be well

If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:
- re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I am adding them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
- and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.

Making me hungry here at almost-lunch-time Friday.... 😋
That's a lot of delicious looking work there! Can you tell me more about the Koeksisters?
Thank you. I wrote about koeksisters here.🙂
Thanks!
The Koeksisters look amazing. I've seen similiar things in other cultures. Do you sell them at the market as well? Looking forward to the new marmalade thing! You know me and marmalade...
Yip. I sell the koeksisters at the market - have done since not long after I started my stall, so about 9 years. I'm told folk come from near and far for them. I sell just there and about 30 - 90 a month.
Marmalade magic happening soon!! 😋
There are days i really really love you!!! 😏
Meaning, that other days you just hate me? 🤣 I love you, too!!
hmmm, kind of a love/hate affair?! yeah, but in a reall gentle way... 😋
🤗
Oh no! You are so wicked. Everything looks yummy but really the Koeksisters 😋😋 I need to try those someday.
Do you do deliveries to Canada? I'll take all of it!
Nope, but collections available - every Saturday at our local market 🤣
Well, it was worth a try! 😆
How I'd love a Koeksister with morning tea, they look way too tempting 👌
You know where to find them!! By the way, I believe @joanstewart's sister makes and sells them somewhere in your neck of the woods...
I must check with Joan thank you!
OMG, I would eat 10 or 15 or 20. and if I can take them home I will take them too.
You could do all of the above! lol
