Sunday Best


Sunday is always been our special day.  We have a rest and enjoy the day.  But it is good also if we can spend time with family and friends.
Cooking for Sunday meals, I put more time and effort to it.  The type of dishes that I cook may be varies; from rice to roast, bread to BBQ, depend to the season.  Today Sunday, just the two of us;  I cooked Veal Cutlet serves with Potato-Rosti and Lemon Lettuce. It was a treat indeed.  Fresh fruit was the dessert.  Dessert is served only when our children/grandchildren are home, or if we have visitors.
