Wonderful, Elizabeth! I do remember listening to Elvis Costello in the early days of chopping vegetables. I'm glad you've enjoyed my pastitsio- the original was devised to show red meat can be used in amounts to add just a bit of luxury and winter squash and a lightened up bechamel substituted for more 'nutrient value' in place of potatoes (high glycemic) and the rich claasic bechamel high in saturated fat. Adding more spice sounds like a perfect mid-winter meal to warm your soul.
It’s such a great recipe Ellen! As I think you know, we’ve made it a couple of times now and I have a loaf-sized pan in the freezer for that night when neither one of us wants to cook 🥰
Elvis Costello!!!! 🙌
We saw him in concert with the Attractions at the end of September! Fantastic show 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I think we learn so much just by watching our parents or grandparents cook. By the way, your piece took me back to my tiny studio apartment in Oxford.
So true. It’s both muscle and heart memory ❤️. I lost my mother many years ago now but I can still see her cooking and taste how things should be.
