I love a good risotto as much as the next guy. There’s something magical about a well-made Risotto; the creaminess of it all, combined with the al dente bite of the just-cooked rice? It’s magical. But there’s something even better than risotto – and that’s left-over risotto. Why? Because it inevitable ends up being turned in to arancini.
Risotto doesn’t keep too well – if you don’t eat it as it’s ready, it’s wasted. Thankfully, you can take the leftovers, roll them in to balls and stuff a filling (I opt for cheese 99% of the time) in them, crumb them and deep fry them, giving you a crispy shell, bursting with flavour and often oozing with gooey cheesy goodness. Oh my.

I’m not overly picky when it comes to food. I’m happy if it smells and tastes good and fills me up.

Every single bloody time, you guys insist on making me hungrier than I already am at this time of the day.
And since I have so little time to eat once I get home these days, it’s even more frustrating.
I’m gonna start nibbling at my own arm soon…

Dude, tell me about it.
Last night my car battery died, had to fork out unexpected R900 for it (luckily battery place was still open)
And this weekend my car is going for a service as well.
JANUARY YOU CRUEL BITCH!
(What broke on your car?)

Big issue for me is the radiator leaking 5 litres per day. Second one is the starter, which is more expensive, but I can still get away for a couple of months without it as it still starts, just makes a high pitched whine for 30 seconds afterwards. Then the breaks, and the service, and the flat, and still haven’t replaced the full exhaust system. Coupled with full clutch last year, catalytic converter the year before…driving something nice out of warranty SUCKS! I love my RX-8, but time for a new one maybe…
