On the incase anyone is under the delusion that I am a tidy cook, let me remove any such thoughts. I put the lasagna together on Friday. I made focaccia and a blueberry clafoutis. As well as a right big mess. I don't know how I manage in such chaos, when chaos in general drives me up a wall. It is one of life's mysteries.
To my immense credit, I got the horror squared away and my son, the now former chef, is able to live in the fantasy of his mother being tidy in all things.
Howard B. Hound gives his full-throated approval.
Dear Mark was taken off the naughty list when he brought in wood for the tri-annual lighting of the bat cave. This year it will be a bi-annual lighting.
We had a good day with son and daughter-in-law. They both really liked the vegetable lasagna and the clafoutis. So, I would say it was a success. I was exhausted and asleep by 8:00PM and did not wake until 8:00AM. Wow. Part of the exhaustion is related to my limited exposure to peopling. Take an introvert, place her in the country and watch as she slowly becomes a hermit and you have....me!
This is what this morning looks like. It's very pretty.

Are those islands your only workspaces?
My kitchen looks like that too when I cook and bake, and then clean up, rinse, repeat.
Glad you had a good visit with son and daughter in law. I'm not much for visiting either these days. It's too draining and too much work.
I am a very messy baker and cook. So I love seeing these photos.
Off the naughty list. lolololololol.
Of course cooking makes a mess! It is to be expected! I was lucky. The Mister would periodically wash dishes for me as I continued making something else. Your fire is delightful, and the weather outside is beautiful... when you are inside and/or watching it on a video!
Nice fire! Of course you have to make a mess when cooking!!
