All hail the new domestic goddess!
Nice quiet evening in last night, just me and Marcus. I cooked a successful dinner: marinated some tuna steaks in olive oil, ginger and lime juice, then seared them briefly. Served the tuna with garlic mashed potatoes and a salad of baby spinach, watercress, rocket, red peppers and avocado. Oh, and fresh coriander. With the remaining marinade, I made both a dressing for the salad and a deglaze for the pan, producing a lovely concentrated lime sauce. All my own recipe, too. Pukka tucker.

After dinner, we finished the wine and struggled to stay awake through the video I'd rented. I had been quite looking forward to watching Meet The Parents as it had got pretty good reviews when it came out. How?
