These are a couple of pictures of ladydog's hard work (and mine) today.
As she said, it looks so pretty once it has been done. One thing, the cleaner I use is long lasting, well it's called Long Term and it really does last a lot longer than other silver cleaners. Of course we had to wash all the glasses (well she washed, I dried). Big job but now it's done for a while. What I could do with is a few Brownies living in the house and taking care of everything for me. Not being able to do that, I was so very grateful to ladydog.
I finally managed to get hold of someone at my provider to sort out my internet problems. Finally had time too of course. So, not only can I now receive emails on my email programme on my desktop, but I can also do so on my laptop. I do need to get a couple more programmes on it for if and when my desktop decides to play up. It is an old machine after all although it has done me well all the time I have had it.
Watched Vera tonight, English cop programme, I really enjoy that programme although the accents are from the north of England and a tad difficult not having lived in the UK for a while. However, Vera herself, played by Brenda Blethyn, is very easy to understand. I gather she is a top actress in the UK these days. She certainly does an excellent job in this series. I wish I had discovered it earlier as I gather it has been running some years.
Talking of theatre, I would really love to see this new version of The Lion King (even if lion prides are really run by the lionesses). I saw a snippet of it on Good Morning America today, the segment with the Warthog, Meercat and lion cub singing Hakuna Matata. The Meercat hung on the Warthog's horn at one point, looked so realistic. I am not sure how it is done, I assume the same way they did Aslan the Lion in the Narnia series. But a whole film of animals, must have taken one heck of a lot of work. Think I will be in line for a DVD.
I love cooking salmon in foil packets, so easy and great for clean up.
Grilled Lemon-Pepper Salmon in Foil
We're willing to bet that this easy grilled salmon in foil recipe will become a regular in your weeknight dinner rotation. Cooking fish in foil keeps it super-moist, plus you don't have to worry about the fish sticking to the grill. Butter, lemon pepper and fresh parsley perk up the flavors for this
versatile main course. Cook some vegetables, such as asparagus, zucchini and corn, alongside the fish packets for a healthy dinner that's ready in less than 30 minutes.
4 (6 ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
2 Tbs unsalted butter
1 tsp lemon pepper
½ tsp salt
8 thin slices lemon (from 1 lemon)
4 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
Preheat grill to medium-high (400-450°F). Place 4 (12-inch) foil squares in a single layer on a work surface; coat with cooking spray. Place 1 salmon fillet, skin-side down, in the center of each. Top each fillet with 1½ teaspoons butter, ¼ teaspoon lemon pepper, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 2 lemon slices and 1 parsley sprig. Crimp the sides of each foil packet together to tightly seal. Place the packets on the grill; cover and grill until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes.
