Everyday Exotic

L needed some gossip magazines for a school project the other day, and we didn't happen to have any lying around as I had done a lot of recycling in the summer. So I was commissioned to go pick up a couple more. I got the most recent 'Hello Canada' and 'Intouch' and made sure to browse them quickly first. Good excuse to catch up on celebrity gossip.

I just caught this new Foodtv Canada show called 'Everyday Exotic' hosted by Roger Mooking. He's a new face with a lot of personality and interesting recipes. Today he's doing a papaya/coconut marinade, using even the papaya seeds.

The contractor showed up to start the tiling, no worries for the moment. A part of the bathroom delivery came earlier in the day, but the other part is due tomorrow. Hope it's early too.

The chicken soup had a delicious smell, was yummy and sooo comforting.

I think I read somewhere that papaya is an excellent tenderizer. Or maybe I'm just making that up. I am going to follow your link, though, as that marinade sounds delicious.

Glad the soup was comforting if anything :-)

Hope everything will soon be finished You must be been very patient. It should be well worth waiting for!

Just a plane ride away:
It's really M and L that like fresh papaya fruit. It's never been my favourite for some reason. Everyone loved the chicken soup (with noodles), so I have to make it more often.

Thanks for the encouragement, Barbara, I hope to get a picture up this weekend!
