Onion and raisin compote.

Onion and raisin compote.

Hi everyone,

this is my “middle holidays” post, it has been writen earlier as at the moment I’m probably laying on a sofa claiming I’ve eaten too much.

But I had to give you this recipe as it’s perfect for a cheese platem with boiled meat or grilled white meat; don’t you have at least one of these on your New year’s Eve’s table?

You can give it as a present too if you still have to make some presents.

Any New Year’s resolutions out there?

Mine are the same since 1982 I think so I’m not very compelled to accomplish them in 2018, anyway the new year will bring me a new home and a big relocation so I want to make some deep decluttering.

How many things, new or almost new, you have at home unused and untouched?

I have so many I make regoular trips to Mercatopoli, sort of permanent flea market where you can sell your old but still good clothes and objects of any kind.

I sometimes find also nice cookbooks I don’t have and I spend all I’ve earned so far. 😀

By the way, have you seen my cookbook’s bookshelf?

Take a look here if you didn’t on my Facebook page!

Maybe I should make some closer photos to show you titles.

Next time! 🙂

Now I have to rest because I have a nice flu (just few days before Christmas of course) and I have to make errands anyway. 🙁
