My wife has some art stuff do on her day off. Gives me a window to go to pickleball. Chose a drills and play session to start working to the next level - tactics.

alt

Have learned that pickleball days are short of photos. Flower on the way to the station. Chose not to crop out the flower that is in focus

alt

Photo of childcare centre next to the courts. Why? My wife's son and grandson are Kelly's. Not where he goes to kindie but it fits.

Spent maybe an hour doing drills - two simple things - how to control a paddle to catch and ball and drop shots from the back of the court. First teaches feel and eye on the ball. Second gives one time to get to the front of the court.

Did shopping for a few dinner things on the ay home. As it happens our guest had to work late. Short of photos - take photos of dinner prep - chicken tagine stages. Season and brown the chicken in the tagine base with your favourite Morroccan or Spanish mix. Soak saffron in warm water. Ready steady for layering

alt

Add saffron water and a little chicken stock. Create a triangle of cinnamon quills. Intersperse with sliced onion and sliced carrots. Slowest cooking stuff on the bottom

alt

Lay the browned chicken pieces around on the base layer. The triangle is key for the parts with bone in. Do not want chicken resting on the base

alt

Layer on the sliced vegetables - sweet potato, zucchini, leek, sliced garlic

alt

Layer on sliced dried fruit - apricots, pitted grapes, sultanas. Whatever you have. Forgot to put in preserved lemon - dang - got some in the fridge I made. Simple to make - chop a lemon in quarters, squeeze in the juice of another lemon, add salt and water to cover. Stash in fridge.

Turn on the heat - put the hood on and simmer away. Every minutes or so spoon some liquid over anynoarts that are still dry. Takes an hour

alt

Served tradionally with couscous - we do quinoa as it is gluten free. Was yum

Did get the weekly investing post out https://mclnks.com/tib823
