  3. No idea. I have a tummyache, so I may let the others fend for
    themselves.

    Sounds lovely.
    Mine is simple, roast chicken, roast potatoes, carrots and onions,
    boiled peas and gravy.

    A basic roast meal but delicious nevertheless.

    Sounds like a few of us went for roasted chicken. I roasted mine the
    Marcella Hazan way, with two lemons in the cavity. I swear, this is
    the best chicken!!!!
    Roasted cauliflower to go along with it.

    Was it an Australian Shiraz?
    At Wegman's in Centerville, VA, Friday, they were having tastings of two
    Australian Shiraz .75 ltr, one was $12.99, one was $15.99. They also had an
    Australian feta on a thin-thin-thin Australian melba-toast-colored cracker.
    The crackers were $15.49 a lb. I didn't see what the feta was, but it was a
    soft feta and very oily. OMG it was good.

    Christine, when you roast your cauliflower, do you cover it, or do you
    butter/oil it; add water to the bottom, add oil to the bottom of the pan?
    Thanks,

    Neither.

    I slice cauliflower into thin wedges, then toss it with olive oil,
    salt and pepper. Roast it at 400 degrees, uncovered, turning it every
    so often. I like it when it starts becoming crispy and caramelized. It
    shrinks down quite a bit. Wonderful flavor!

    Thanks, Christine, I'll try it this way next time. When I was in an Asian
    market Friday, there must have been a run on cauliflower, because they were
    carrying them out 6 at a time. I had too many veggies already or I would've
    bought a head.

    Galaktoboureko.

    Sounds good. I did a bottom round with the fixings. I also have nice
    sliced Italian bread for sandwiches. Leftovers will be GOOD.

    LOL... no I'm not but thanks for the heads up. I'll search it out. I
    actually got up to go to the bathroom and couldn't get back to sleep. Bart
    is actually sitting on my lap purring. Ramsey is lurking around waiting
    for Bart to get down. Hoot is in her usual spot. She's wrapped in Steven's
    legs.

    Moxie is purring up a storm and I'll try dozing off to the dulcet
    sounds of people selling baskets on QVC.

    It's true, you can't beat a roast dinner.They're not difficult, you just
    have to have enough time, which is why we tend to have them at the
    weekend. And of course then you have cold meat for sandwiches during the
    week. And if it was chook you can make stock with the remains (you can
    use the leg bones too you know, doesn't matter that they've been on your
    plate, they're going to be simmered for ages). In the old days there
    used to be a bone for the dog if it was lamb, but I never buy bone-in
    lamb any more, not since they invented the easycarve leg.

    On Saturday we had boned rolled saddle of lamb with cauliflower in
    cheese sauce, potatoes, pumpkin and gravy. I forget what the wine was,
    something white.

    Christine
    OK I confess, last night we had Latina Pasta, but tonight we're having
    roast butterfly duck (prepared by the butcher). Both convenience foods,
    but one is much further upmarket than the other!
