gemfyreI just made fish and fennel spaghetti for my b'day dinner. MAN it was good. Not perfect - but I've never eaten, let alone worked with fennel before. I know for next time. And despite the pasta sauce I used being a tad too chilli for my liking, it was tolerable and the fish was yummmmy. Wasn't that expensive either. I think I need to buy more. Fish is sooo good but just eating it deep fried is not good for me.
Of course, stuff I've done is bolded. Stuff in italics I haven't neccessarily done - I just needed to comment.
