Drifting through life

pork and veal mince to be precise a little over 500grams, which was more than I wanted, but no big deal, I put half in the freezer. The rest I put in a mixing bowl and added one large (slightly blurry) egg..... a sprinkle of dried parsley, a good shake of the white pepper..... and a couple of spoonfuls of packaged store bought seasoning mix. mixed it all together very thoroughly, and shaped the mix into tiny little meatballs. I deep fried them in small batches until they were nicely browned then added them to the big pot of spaghetti sauce I was making. simmer....simmer....simmer....simmer....cook a little pasta, then it was dinner time meatballs and sauce served over pasta sprinkled with a little freshly grated parmesan, then eaten. This was my first ever attempt at meatballs and I have to say, dinner was really, really good.

This idea come sto us from Kim, at Frog Ponds Rock, who realised one day that she takes many more photos than she uses, as we all do, and wanted to post some of the older ones on her blog. A once a week meme seemed like a good idea, so Sunday Selections was born, and anyone at all can join in. I often choose a theme for my Sunday Selections and this week I've chosen one of my favourite foods. CHEESE The following photos were taken at one of the cheese stalls at Adelaide's Central Market last November. I prefer to buy my cheese in block form, so that I can slice, cube or grate as needed. I haven't actually tried any of these selections, I'm not so adventurous when it comes to new tastes and I was raised on mild cheese that we bought in wedges ...
