Lo and behold, my computer packed up again...I was devastated and could just imagine losing every photo or post I have ever written....ok, ok I will learn to back-up more often! Finally this morning I got my computer back and everything seems to be in working order. A fellow SA blogger Jeanne from Cooksister committed herself to make November a-post-a-day month on her blog. When I read that, I felt really guilty, because when I first started blogging, I also posted everyday, but lately I have slipped into a post-a week mode! Well, enough is enough!!!!!!! No more of this nonsense. I am going away for the weekend, but on Monday I will be back with a vengeance!
This morning I woke up with this "picture" in my head .....a goat's cheese salad paired with the lovely berries we have in season now. I found a lovely little goat's at the supermarket the other day so off to the kitchen I went......
The salad is nothing fancy....
Wild rocket
blue berries
gooseberries
one small round of goats cheese per person.
The secret however is in the dressing.
1 small tin passion fruit pulp
1 cup vegetable oil(olive oil is too pungent)
zest of 1 lemon and 1 orange
1 big strawberry
2 tbs white balsamic vinegar
1 tsp sugar
salt to taste
1 Tbs chopped mint
Blend together until it is smooth and creamy.

Things have been pretty hectic around here with catering, a test series at school and a car being in the garage for repairs so not much planning has gone into family meals. I found some calamari steaks at the fish monger the other day and had it[...]
