OLS - Week 3

This week's dinner was the old standby Aaron and I make when we can't think of anything else to cook (which ends up happening a lot). The dish is called Colcannon, a traditional Irish dish consisting of mashed potatoes with some shredded cooked cabbage mixed in. Delicious, and it doesn't get much cheaper than potatoes and cabbage!



To round out the meal, we added fried eggs, and sauteed tomatoes.

Ingredients:

Colcannon:
- Organic potatoes
- Organic cabbage
- Organic onions
- Milk, butter, (non-local: salt & pepper)

Fried eggs:
- Free-range organic eggs, canola oil

Sauteed tomatoes:
- Tomatoes, garlic, canola oil, (non-local: salt & pepper)

That's all for this week. In other news, my dissertation is coming along nicely; I probably won't go into panic mode for another couple weeks. I'll try to post some of the findings from my research sometime soon -- its turning out to be pretty interesting!

Besides school, Aaron and I have started taking salsa dancing lessons, and we had a nice relaxing picnic on the beach today. Yes, there is a beach in Edinburgh -- a not half bad beach even. And they allow dogs! We'll have to bring Cassie next time. And the camera...
