May 13: Gaborone A day spent mostly in transit: drive from Victoria Falls to Kisane, then fly from Kisane back to Gaborone. On our way back, Helen, discussing our plans for the next few days, mentioned that I would be making dinner that evening, which prompted an immediate and spontaneous "Yay!" from Antone and Callee. Most gratifying, particularly given my tremendous ego. On returning to Gaborone, I pulled out the wedge of assiago and kilo of arborio I had brought with me to Africa and, using an interesting South African vintage, produced the standard rissoto with red wine and rosemary, accompanied by a salad with a balsamic vinagrette (also brought a vial of the good vinegar with me). Seemed to go over tolerably well. |
