Mustard greens

 
Hi Natty!  Sorry I'm running late, I had to organize cooking oil.  How are you ?  I hope you are cheerful and having fun.  You are the most beautiful girl in the world to me, and I love you with all of my heart.  Please keep safe and healthy OK!  Oh yeah, plus Internet is crawling right now.  Internet is still very spotty over here for me.  It's been over a month like this already, so what do you folks think?  It's either incompetent or intentional, right?  The odds favor the latter, especially given human nature.  But mashaAllah, the music got through to the other side of the Web.  Today was hard work on my part, though.

I'm kind of hooked on chicken chow mein right now, the stuff goes especially well with Coca-Cola.  I didn't have any Bok Choy today, but I saw some fresh mustard greens when I went to pick up some filtered water.  So I spent a buck on that, and I got quite a lot for a buck.  I made sardine rolls for lunch.  Sardine rolls are a big hit, especially with the cats!  I added some mustard greens in there, and it made a nice difference.  Tasted mustardy!  I didn't notice much of a flavor difference in the chow mein.  The greens got drowned out by the chow mein.

Basil

 
Hi Natty!  How are you, Honey?  Were you waiting for me?  I'm waiting for you!  I love you, Natty.  I hope things are easy going for you over there, and you are keeping safe and healthy.  It's a bit wet here today.  It kind of slowed me down, but I was able to get dinner done by sunset.  It's pasta again today!  Angel hair this time, but the sauce is home made.  I didn't have any basil at all when the year started.  Then a couple of rogue plants grew from dormant seeds in pots, so I isolated those in hope of getting seeds.  One of them grew big and leafy, so leafy that I knew I could make a good sauce out of one plant.  I bought tomatoes Monday, I finally got the chance to process them into sauce.  First I stewed the tomatoes and basil until they dried up and turned black.  Not burned, just black.  I kept them in the cooler until today, when I added onions, garlic, black pepper and a can of tomato soup.  Tomato paste would have been better, but there was none.  I got tomato puree instead which was cheaper than tomato soup, but the price was a lie so I bought tomato soup instead.  Blend it all together, and the sauce wasn't dark enough.  The taste is a success however, so I left it at that.  Want some?

Chicken chow mein

 
Hi Natty!  How are you, Honey?  I hope everything is well over there, and you are keeping safe and healthy.  I made chicken chow mein just now.  It was a big hit for me during Ramadan, and I have the routine down.  Up above you can see it, and I eat it straight out of the wok.  Cat proof!  The bok choy is a bit old, but the taste is business as usual.  Want some?
