Quiche before....
Quiche after....
Sunset last night.....
3rd February 2013
This afternoon I want to cook more than anything else in the world.
I wonder at this thing in me - this pull to bake a cake when we don’t need one - urgent as answering a ringing phone.....grateful too.
Not a cake today but a tart - melting soft leeks and onions, woody chesnut mushrooms, a creamy egg custard speckled with black pepper and fresh coriander, Cheddar cheese bubbling bronze on top....and we do need supper.
When I’m cooking and absorbed like this I can forget that although we have hot water and radiators tonight it’s only temporary ( I can make the pressure go back up by pulling 2 levers) - masking the fact that there is a massive leak somewhere and the boiler is failing......lying about it’s true worth...
like I am.
