lots of lovely stuff

I hope this post has lots of lovely things for you.

First the recipe for the Syrian Lentils. A recipe from our local Tapas Restaurant.
Ingredients
1 tin if lentils (I use cooked green lentils from a tin but you could cook your own dried ones if you prefer.)
50 grams of cumin
25 grams of chopped fresh coriander
25 grams diced celery
25 grams diced leek
25 grams diced carrot
juice of 1 lemon
250 mls vegetable stock (to let down the lentils if needed)
salt and pepper to taste
Method
Place the lentils into a heavy bottomed saucepan and heat gently. add cumin and vegetables and cook until the vegetables are cooked. Finish the lentils with chopped coriander and lemon juice, check seasoning and serve.
Note- If the lentils are thick add some vegetable stock to right consistency. They always taste better if made the day before!

Ok, so yesterday I went here

again!

After a successful visit to Liverpool and it's new museum with Diane a few weeks ago I wanted to take my mum, who spent her first 14 years in Liverpool.
It was a beautiful sunny day.

The pigeons were enjoying a shower.

We walked down to the Pier Head and headed for the new Museum of Liverpool.

We noticed lots of groups of people with instruments gathering.

Then they started to play and march through the streets.

It was very interesting to see and hear.

Then after a look around the museum, we walked around the dock.

We looked around the 1940's house

Then we headed back for the bus home.

I noticed this sad old building from the bus on the way home

Hubby and I had a lovely autumn walk today and I want to show you some photos later in the week but Downton is about to come on so I am off to put my feet up in front of the TV.
