gemfyreFerris wheel on the foreshore - hell yes! Bring it on. Something interesting for Perth, and I hold the hope that it will pave the way for roller coasters and stuff. The city part of the river can't get any more fucked up by a well planned theme park. I originally quipped that a giant wooden roller coaster around Melville Water would be awesome, but then I thought the better of it - there are wader roosts around Melville Water, but Perth Water is all walled for some reason and disturbance of wildlife would be minimal.
Wednesday night's cooking adventures was one of my pick 'n' mix pasta dishes.
Pasta (regular spaghetti and some spinach fettucine)
Yellow squash
Mushrooms
Sugar snap peas
Tomato
Garlic
Olive oil
Chopped parsley
Smoked trout
Olive tapenade
Pine nuts
Slivered almonds
Shaved parmesan
I sauteed the garlic, squash, sugar snap peas, tomato and mushrooms in the olive oil while I was cooking the pasta. It was pretty.
Once the pasta was cooked I drained it, stuck it back in the saucepan and added the sauteed veg. Then chucked in half a smoked trout, broken up, the chopped parsley, a spoonful of tapenade, sprinkled in the nuts and stirred it altogether, put it in a bowl and topped it with parmesan cheese. Didn't look pretty in the end but it was tasty.
And my God did Bella go silly for the skin off the smoked trout. Usually Lil is able to bully her away from any treats I give them, but Bella protected the trout skin and miaowed quite loudly for more. I'm keeping the head and tail and skin and stuff for stock, as I do.
