Prince, meatballs
May. 13th, 2017 06:00 pmI did a Gousto. It was the cheesy meatball one. It was good, it wasn't hard and there weren't too many weird ingredients. However I didn't make the meatballs very well and one broke apart and spilled its cheddary innards into the main soup. Also again the portions were a bit crazy: I filled three big bowls full and there was still half a bowl left over. I could have reduced the brothy part down a bit more, I suppose, but I don't think that would have made much of a difference. ANYWAY this time the Gousto people included a small binder in the pack so I can put the recipes in it. That was kind of them.
I am reading Mayte Garcia's memoir. I just got to the bit where she meets Prince. It is bittersweet, obviously, but very well written. Since there doesn't appear to be a co-writer she seems to have a gift for putting you in the scene and seeing it from different perspectives. I hope she writes more. Anyway so far I have learnt that she was an international professional bellydancer before she was sixteen. And that Prince had no idea how to pronounce her name and had to ask. WE CAN ALL RELATE.
Doctor Who on in a bit. It is by the guy who did the Mummy and the Flatline ones so it could be the best so far this season, not that that would be a particularly high bar.
