Is this your kitten?!

I made this Beef and Sweet Potato Stir-Fry on Monday and I really liked the flavours but Mum and I were still hungry afterwards and decided it needed rice. So I made it again tonight, added a bit of water and cornflour so there would be more 'juices' and served it over some basmati rice.

Oh yeah.

I wouldn't have thought to use kumara in a stir-fry or add cinnamon and cloves to garlic, ginger and soy sauce but it's a excellent combination. And the green beans we had were so fresh, they were lovely. Green beans are one of those vegetables I like well enough but they're not my first choice. But these were good.

I meant to post this yesterday and completely forgot.
 


The 'transcript' from Huffington Post:

Well sir, it looks like you have a, uh, busted valve cap here. I don't mean to throw around the lingo like that, but it's basically just a cap for the uh-- the valve. Ahem. And so all of the air has just been leaking out of this thing for God knows how long. Days, maybe. It's very technical, but what I could do for you is order the part and replace it and it'd be good as new by-- hey! Hey, what are you doing with that thing? HEY SIR, DON'T TOUCH THE TIRE! I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU WHAT'S WRONG. YOU'RE AN AMATEUR, YOU SHOULDN'T GO IN ALONE!

Okay, I am easily amused by baby animals.

Today I made the quinoa and brussel sprouts recipe you posted the other day. I changed the brussel sprouts for cauliflowers and it tasted so good!! Definitely something I will be doing again. I forgot the dill this time but next time I must remember to add it to see if it tastes very differently.

Awwwww, adorable kitty!!

I'll try and remember to tell you when I do. I also want to try it with red quinoa since they were out of it at the store this time so I'd to settle for the white.
