Hello, Hello, Hello!
How’s your Sunday? Ours been nice. In the morning we went to farmers market. The last of the season, before Winter starts, so we really shopped til we dropped 🤪
There was an Italian vendor that I stopped by at, just to look around. The guy was so friendly and fun. He was dancing and when I approached his table, he opened a box of biscotti and handed me one. I was like oh dammitt, now I really have to buy all the goodies on his table 🤪 Free stuff is awesome, but a thank you by buying something would make it even, right? So yep. I walked away with a box full of Italian pastry 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was surprised and stunted a bit, when I spoke to him in Italian 😁 It was a nice day indeed at the farmers market, not to mention, a sunny breezy day! Yesterday was raining. Truly Autumn days we are having lately.
However, for sure today’s share is a recipe. You know me 😜
Maybe the last of BBQ too, before Winter is here, which is in a month 🤪🤪🤪🤪
Here is Indonesian grilled fish!
