What a great day it was! We were spontaneously invited to good friends and she is a master in the kitchen! Dinner was a delight as always when she cooks authentic Pakistani food from scratch. The food is not spicy, but tasty. We had a busy Saturday, so leftovers were the basis for lunch. That castle steak never ends...

Day 13 - A real home day
A day of planning and action. It takes time to sit and search through recipes and also find something that feels good and meets the criteria I have right now on my diet. But now I'm charged up for next week and I know there will be some real highlights on the dinner table.
