Long story short

 

Made food today. It did take a long time, with many relative travails. Slightly incorrect ingredients (the wrong fish), accidentally used all the prawns instead of half, when other half was intended to be used by others for cooking. Lots of mess made, and the sause refused to thicken.

And yet... it turned out to be a rather tasty dinner. Hoki instead of whiting, shrimp paste and sauce, couple of vegetable sides. Enjoyable to eat despite many, many misgivings. But I'm not making it again.  There would be photos if I hadn't lost my camera, and that's a shame.

Despite how long it takes me and the mess needing cleaning, it does feel good to be making food again.
