I found myself involved in cooking this morning, a very rare occurrence these days. Our normal fare is pre-packaged meals and, more recently, brought-in meals from Toosey, the local Nursing Home. However, Marilyn was determined this morning to prepare a large pot of Osso Bucco. Because there was a certain amount of chopping, stirring and moving of heavy pots, I became involved as well.
It was actually a pleasant exercise and I'll enjoy eating my share of the result.
We have Archie staying with us at the moment. He seems to have a couple of nights each week here and he must see us as his second home.
With our coffee, I turned on Youtube to see what is happening and found a video made by Steve, one of our regulars. He was in Nova Scotia and was clearly in love with the place. His video was nearly 50 minutes long and would certainly encourage anyone to visit.
It's a beautiful day; the sun is shining but the air is cold, typical winter weather in this part of the world. Some people think that Tasmania at this time of the year is bleak, cold and wet, but nothing could be further from the truth. Yes, we will have rainy days which are not much fun but the normal weather is crisp and sunny ... bracing, I think they call it.
