It’s off for Meeta’s Monthly Mingle which is rightfully calling for warming soups this time. I think I am just about making it in the nick…

ROASTED RED BELL PEPPER & LAMB PASTA…HHDD & CLICK
“Cookery is not chemistry. It is an art. It requires instinct and taste rather than exact measurements.”Marcel Boulestin This is my first entry for a Hay Hay it’s Donna Day event, & for some reason the event makes me somewhat nervous. I’ve wanted to be part of it for long, but can’t figure out if I meet the bill, or am on the right track.
