August 7- my dinner is cold! - and other stuff... mostly food

I woke up kind of achy and a little nauseous this morning, but with the help of some Tylenol (panadol) and a couple of naps, I did okay today, and was actually rather useful.
Well, useful in that I seemed to have cooked a lot today, once my tummy started feeling better. Paul had the day off so he got to reap the rewards.
I started out by roasting some tomatillos from our garden under the broiler (as the recipe said)...

then blended them with sauteed onion, cilantro, lime juice, one clove of garlic, a jalepeno, and a little bit of sugar to make tomatilla salsa verde.

testin' it out... not bad, not bad.

Then quickly whipped up a couple of shrimp tacos for lunch and topped it with a little sour cream and some of that homemade salsa verde.

Went for a little walk- did me good to get a little fresh air I think. This tree was a few blocks away, pretty ain't it?

Dinner was cold! On purpose- home made gazpacho made from tomatoes and cucumber from our garden and a mixed green salad with roasted veg that I had roasted earlier. (annotated)

Then, for dessert, home made orangey dark chocolate chip cookies made with whole wheat flour. (These'll go into the cookie/biscuit tin and we'll be eating them all week).
