Pork and 'Puter

The Pork!

It seems that we are destined to eat well in 2012!  On Friday I decided that I felt like roast pork and so it was that the wheels were set in motion for a roast dinner.  My favourite way to do this is to cook a nice rolled boned pork roast on the rotisserie in the barbeque.  It always turns out super delicious with perfect crackling thanks to my special trick - and this dear reader is something that if I told you, I would have to kill you!  ;-)  This was accompanied by a selection of vegetables baked inside in the oven.  During all this our neighbour Helen commented over the fence that the smells coming from the barbeque were divine so I insisted she pop over and help us eat it.  We had a great evening feasting on the roast dinner and washing it down with a few good wines.  We always have fun with Helen, she's a hoot.

The (com)Puter.

My dear dad has decided to leap headlong into modernity by buying himself a laptop (the days of his old 'clunker' were numbered).  So today I spent the day at mum and dad's helping dad set up his new router and laptop - who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?  You just have to be very patient!  Anyhow, the day was a success with dad quite chuffed with his new high-tech world.  It was also great to spend the day with him just doing stuff.

The day ended with the lovely Wayne and I heading down to our local to relax and share a bottle of Semillon Sauvignon Blanc whilst enjoying the great view.  Life's good :-)



The View



PS:  I'm aware that this is yet another food post and this blog is seriously at risk of becoming a blog about the lovely Wayne and I gourmandising our way through the year - I will endeavour to expand the subject matter! (but we just enjoy good food & wine!).
