You see? I don't exaggerate - the sun shines more in Kommetjie than the rest of the Peninsula. These shots taken this afternoon show the edge of a rather fierce cold front moving in from the north west, already covering Table Mountain. To the south we have ice clouds and blue sky! The sea is whipped up into a froth of icy green water and pure white surf and of course, as I write this, the front has now covered Kommetjie and the rain is starting to drip in drops from above. The wind is freezing! A good night to sit in front of a fire and read a book or do a puzzle.
However, I have been invited out for supper - you'll never guess, the Pickled Fish - Kerula Prawn Curry!! The last time we were there, she was supposed to be on a plane to Europe having misread the date on the ticket! Tonight we are going for the last time before the new owner takes over and we don't want to take a chance of never savouring those prawns again. I have been promised the recipe, but I doubt whether I will be able to replicate the dish to that degree of professionalism.
I'll have to leave the puzzle for tomorrow.
