Home delights

Mary Siegle @mcsiegle challenged me to photograph something that is one of the best things about being home from travel, something you can't get anywhere else.

When you are travelling you eat out a lot and try different foods and that is a wonderful part of the travel experience. But, I find that I can't always get the foods I like to eat, or that the prices are so high that I have to eat food I don't usually eat. I found on this trip that there were more chips and potatoes than I am used to, and fewer salads and vegetables than I usually eat. So, my response to Mary's challenge is about the simple pleasures of a home cooked meal. So last night we had a roast chicken with lots of colourful vegetables: baked pumpkin, roasted cauliflower with garlic and cherry tomatoes, together with braised red cabbage.

I hope this is an adequate response to Mary's challenge.
Nicely composed and the oven lighting is perfect. Your menu is making me hungry.

Well, if anything it gets your tastes buds excited! I think it sounds delicious and the oven looks very homey. An excellent response to Mary's challenge! It might fit the current bld (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) challenge too.

Perhaps you could shorten the get pushed 616 voting by quite a bit since closing it on the 9th will make the next round a week late.
We usually close the voting on the get pushed within the week since it is a weekly challenge.
This way the winner of 616 can short list 617 which closes tomorrow before 618 ends.
It does get confusing as it is a weekly challenge!!

Will do. Will close it Tuesday. Will that work? @farmreporter

@ankers70
That definitely works!
So sorry to be such a pain ... part of my job as the Weekly SH*T host!
But, please announce it when it is over rather than wait for Monday so the winner can short list the round that ends today and have that winner announced before the next round ends.
