    You will need (for 4)

    • 400g flat mushrooms, thickly sliced
    • 200g Swiss brown mushrooms, quartered
    • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

    • 1 cup instant polenta
    • 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
    • 1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

    Method

    1. Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add half the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until tender. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with remaining oil and mushrooms. Return mushrooms to pan. Add vinegar. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium. Simmer for 2 minutes or until liquid has almost evaporated.
    2. Meanwhile, combine milk and 2 cups cold water in a saucepan. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Gradually pour in polenta, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low. Whisk polenta for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat. Using a wooden spoon, stir for 1 minute. Stir in parmesan. Divide polenta between bowls. Top with mushrooms and parsley.

Wednesday is day of

Wednesday is the day that I work from home, although today is my last one, since I will finish working this Friday. I have this girl cleaning my house because I  can't do much, plus I prefer to pay someone to help with the cleaning if I can. I think its because I grew up in Brazil where you usually have a live in cleaner (or used to, cause I hear things are changing there. So I didn't do much today. I did eat chocolate (Please someone make the chocolate go away), cooked dinner in the morning (Before the cleaner came).  I made a mushroom ricotta quiche (Recipe is here ) that is delicious (had some for lunch). and spent the whole afternoon researching about my new little project (its in the oven) and not getting anywhere really cause I am finding challenging to find the suppliers I need in Australia. I Also did some work, but 2 days before I finish I don't really have so much to do. Anyway, that's my day. Time to go pick up my son from day care. Til next time Xo...

Que pasa con las relaciones reales????

Si, es verdad! Después de orkut (o antes, en realidad no lo se) vemos una proliferación imensa de sitios de relaciones, intercambios, grupos, personas, deseos, fotos, y lo que nos imaginemos. Orkut Flickr Last.fm 43things Blogs Fotologs etc, etc, etc. Será que ya llegamos al punto que somos tan dependientes de la tecnologia que no somos capaces de salir de casa y hacer amigos a la moda antigua? O será que virtualmente hoy en dia nos parece mas facil porque podemos pintar la imagen que queramos y es una manera de esconder la realidad? Que pasa con la realidad? no se...este post va a tener parte 2...lo voy a pensar un poco. por favor, diganme que opinan??? De cualquier manera, apesar de todo lo malo que se supone que puede tener, o que esta pasando con el mundo, tiene su parte buena, como compartir la musica que yo escucho, que es lo que les pongo ahora mismo! Que disfruten... y que las amistades virtuales se hagan cada vez mas reales...

Recipe Index

From freeprintableonline.com Last night I had this idea...I decided to create an index from all the recipes I have in my books and mags. Why? Well, I don't know about you, but I don't remember everything and I thought...wait, If I would have a file, with categories, and etc...when I am looking for an idea to cook I could look all the recipes I have in one place...:) Yaaaay! It will take me a while. I am actually doing a Google Doc, so I can access it from anywhere.  I am putting the name, cooking time, how many servings, where is it (Which Mag, book, etc) and some categories, like Meat, chicken, egg - Main, salad, dessert - and comments. I am also filtering by stuff that I don't eat, would never even try, looks waaaay too complicated (Hello Master chef magazine). I will let you know how it goes... Love,  Vic
