days of variable quality and content.

Today  started on and odd start, the student has presented her pices to turnetin, the anti copying thing that stops students plagiarising others work  It's just a bit over sensitive picking up "of the" as something somenone has ever said before is a bit extreme.

Her mark overall though at 19% is pretty good especially when you realise that every time a book is referenced this idiot software notes that someone has done it before.

Today has been an interesting day though, turned up at bookers, having dropped Branwen in  college and there was lots on special offer.

Loads of carrot soup made today, ready for the freezer.

Then in got more tricky, Phil the builder turned up with loads of scallops so we have spent the night slightly arguing how you cook then.

I was taught in a Breton Paysienne kitchen where you threw in loads of butter loads of garlic loads of onions and pints of last nights left over cheap white.

How I wish I had listened more closely.
  
Then again we were cooking for 250.

The thing I can't remember is the searing of the meat first.

But it has been  a great night.

We made short date carrot into carrot soup and short date other stuff as well.

There is loads of proper rich sauce Coquilles  waiting to go in the freezer.

Yum yum.
