Some kind of bohemian night...?

Hi there to you all! Are you enjoying your weekend? I hope so!

Yesterday Morning I went to work, as always, and nothing interesting happened there except that in the early morning, at home, I found some beautiful high-heeled boots that I have for some time and hardly used... so I decided to start using them!

T shirt - Zara (I've cut the neck!)
Skirt - Bershka (very old! But I love it!)
Socks - claire's
Boots - Blanco
Navy Brooche - La virgen de los broches
Pins on the skirt - Offbrand

Then, at night, I went to dinner with my dear Jairo and later picked up Mary in his house for a try of bohemian trip to the beach ... although from the photos, and you can see that was anything but bohemian!




We had a lovely night!

And this is what I was wearing:

Mad Sin's t shirt - Bought at Sziget
Skirt - Sexy Dynamite London
Leggings - Zara
Boots - Mustang
Head scarf - Offbrand

And today I went to my grandparents' house for lunch with them again tonight with my people go ... What we expect today?

Christmas in September!

College football season starts today. Line-up on ESPN: 11am - Ohio State (who will lose to Navy), 2:45pm - Illinois vs. Mizzou (Illini will polish'em off, no problem), and 6 pm - Oklahoma vs. BYU (no competition - OU's got it).

To prepare, the morning started with serious preparations: chili -- vegetarian today for our house guests who follow a vegetarian diet. Note the time on the stove. : )

Beef and Tomato Pasta Shells

Pasta is a very common and healthy food item but is of course extremely bland without an accompanying and appropriate sauce. I prepared this beef and tomato pasta recipe for my dinner last night and found it to be absolutely delicious.

Ingredients (Serves Two)

1/2lb minced or ground beef
1 7oz can chopped tomatoes in tomato juice
2 garlic cloves (crushed or very finely chopped)
2 cups of pasta shells
5 or 6 basil leaves (chopped) plus one extra to garnish
2 tsp grated or shredded cheddar or other hard cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method

Put the minced or ground beef in to a pot and brown it completely over a medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. This process should take two or three minutes. Add the garlic and the chopped tomatoes, bring up to the boil then turn the heat down until the sauce is at a low simmer. Cover and leave to cook, stirring occasionally.

Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and add the pasta. Turn the heat down until the water is but simmering and cook for the period of time stipulated on the packet, stirring occasionally. Please note that it is a myth that adding oil to the water will prevent the pasta shells or any other type of pasta from sticking together. As most schoolchildren know, oil and water do not mix and the oil will simply form in a layer on top of the water. All this will achieve is to waste some perhaps very expensive oil!

A couple of minutes before the pasta is ready, stir the basil in to the sauce and season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

When the pasta is ready, drain it well and put it on to two plates. Spoon the sauce on top and garnish with the cheese and remaining basil.

Food Tip of the Day - Saturday, September 5th, 2009: How to Cook Bacon

There is no mystery attached to the process of how to cook bacon, nor is the procedure in any way difficult. Why, therefore, is bacon so often burnt to a crisp and/or served swimming in saturated fat?

Bacon is delicious at any time of the day, particularly at breakfast time - but only when it is cooked correctly.
