Leftover Night

For dinner yesterday I decided to reheat the vegetable curry from a few nights ago. To it I added some forgotten kafir lime leaves that were in the freezer, and did up a side of some kind of white fish, and some cauliflower.

I shop lots of different shops here in DK (well - except Bilka) to get my groceries, and I buy my fish from Lidl. Their salmon is the best I've tasted, and they also have a big selection of other types of fish. My little guy even likes their whole breaded fillet of pollack - much better than any fish stick in this country. Have you ever tried a fish stick here? Its like eating garbage, old garbage. Nasty bad.

Anyway, our gourmet fillet of some kind of fish was nummy with the curry. Back when we used to live in Ames, Iowa I often ordered a fish/kafir lime/curry dish from Thai Kitchen...it was to die for. Ames might be a small town, but it has sooooo many great restaurants.



And I finished up my latest knitting project - a cozy for a hot water bottle. Did you just get creeped out? My husband did when he first heard the idea. But I'd been surfing for new projects, and listening to my knitting podcasts and it seems to be THE THING to do. Plus I accidentally stumbled upon some water bottles at a shop in the mall, and then that was that.



I'm making two - one for me, and one for a gift. And I won't be trying it out fully (filling the thing with hot water) until we move back to MN. It gets darn cold there in the winter, and I think this will be a more environmental option than my electric blanket.
