It's finally cool enough to cook. Yesterday was chicken and leek pie, made from the Naked Chef's "Jamie's Dinners" book. Much better (and easier) than the version from James Martin's "Great British Dinners" book.

Breakfast this morning was bangers, eggs, beans, tomatoes, and toast. Our local grocery finally brought back proper bangers. We've been going without for months.

As you can tell, I have a thing for English food. Rather hard to pull off in the middle of Arizona. Britain is a cold country, with lots of dishes well suited to long days in front of a warm stove. Arizona does not lend itself to spending a great deal of time in a hot kitchen.
