We will see&#8230; he didn&rsquo;t make his typical face yet&hellip; Oh I might be lucky for a little bit cos lately hell froze over &#8211; he ate sour cucumber! not in a soup, just plain&#8230; so maybe I can make some salads based on that if he starts moaning again&hellip; in 3&#8230;2&#8230;1&#8230;<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;\">\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;\">\n\t<span id=\"docs-internal-guid-74295f07-d33e-c965-6c22-205edb61ed97\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Meanwhile the new recipe is&#8230; <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a couple of reasons for researching new recipes, or creating my own dishes.
