Barbecue dinner with friends

Towards the end of March, we went to our friends S and D’s home for a barbecue. I love grilled or barbecued haloumi cheese, so I was chuffed to see our starter dish cooking on the barbie. Soon, we could hear the sizzle of haloumi turning golden-brown on the hotplate. It smelled great! I ate […]

It was a stinking hot day on Monday 29 December, so Jac decided to keep the heat out of the house and cook dinner outdoors on the barbecue.

Tuesday night barbie

Yesterday evening after work Jac cleaned the barbie (it hadn’t been used for quite some time) and then cooked up a delicious dinner on it.

Savannah’s 8th birthday – Part 2

As the salads were being tossed, I sneaked off to take photos of the barbie. Here are the beef chipolatas. The blob of goop at the back is satay sauce, which we had on… …these chicken kebabs. We also had grilled chicken breasts too. I usually don’t enjoy chicken breasts (I always choose thighs, if […]
