Quote of the Day: (Poetic license applies)......'Like Odysseus, the Prime Minister looks wiser when he's seated.'

The above came to mind after seeing the pic of Howard walking the streets of Washington! Somebody should tell him to come home and see his tailor!

Time to change the subject and share a recipe with you...just for something completely different!

Grab a couple of boned chicken breasts (pretend you're cooking for two!)....place a little oil and butter into pan. Add chicken breasts and turn a couple of times (the chicken breasts...not yourself!) Add a couple of garlic cloves, finely chopped or better still, crushed, some powdered chicken stock, a sprinkle of white pepper and a few splashes or more of dry white wine together with juice from canned asparagus spears. Cook and reduce liquid. Throw in about six fresh asparagus spears. Pour in some cream....reduce and then add about six canned asparagus spears. Serve with suitable vegetables of your choice or a tossed mixed salad! Open another bottle of wine because you've finished the one you opened to add to the chicken dish while preparing it!
