Love to cook: Who wants to come for dinner? It's a surprise!
Join me in the kitchen for the preparation for dinner. Eleven guests, Pumpkin-Carrot curry soup. Followed by three mains; Spaghetti Bolognese, Chili Con Carne and a beef casserole. And dessert - well you just have to wait and see - enjoy the preparations.
U r s great chef Anita darling 😘
Special food 😋
Yay 😁🖐🏻
Thank you Aishu, you are so kind. 💝🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
I'll take the open invitation any time my friend. It looks amazing - I'd happily sink my teeth into it any time.
Thank you for a wonderful and DELICIOUS looking video.
Warm greetings from Denmark to Holland via Bangkok....
Thomas
PS. Sorry I've been a bit away from UA-cam lately as I've been ill for a while. Trying to catch up on videos now.
@@SUPERGENKI oh Thomas sorry to hear that. I hope your road to wellness comtinues to improve. I too send warm well wishes your way to Denmark - from the Netherlands. Happy amd safe travels. 🥰🇳🇱🙋🏼♀️🥝
What a surprise 👍 … 😋
@@notsurewhatscookin8691 it sure was. Thanks friend. Have a great weekend. 🎶🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Looks like a fantastic feast and I am sure it was very much appreciated. Sorry to learn about your injury. Sending healing thoughts your way. Hope your having a great week. Best wishes, Matt & Bec 😊❤
Thanks Matt and Bec. All slowly settling down thankfully. Was a bit of a setback - something to be aware of in future. Sort of slipped my mind of late. I appreciate you dropping by, Enjoy your travels. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Oh sorry to hear about your injury, so pleased you’re on the mend ❤️🩹 what yummy wholesome home cooking 🧑🍳 looks delish 😊❤️✨
Thanks for that lovely comment Kat. Yes slowly but surely life is returning to normal - the meal is in the freezer - it'll be helpful for later. Have a happy Wednesday. 💝🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Loads of tips on this one Anita. Love the fake mince and the idea for the cans top and bottom brilliant. Only thing is now I'm so hungry 😂 well done Anita 👏
Thanks Jim- I was quite surprised that amongst my friends no-one ever thought about the 'bottom out of the tin' thing. Flat is always better than rotund 🤣! The mince is a great way to avoid the odd meat meal. I can't save the world but can do little things I think help. Haha, I hope you've eaten a good hearty meal by now Jim. Enjoy your Wednesday. 👌🙋♀️🇳🇱🥝
Good cooking. I'll have to try this!
Ah yes, and let me know what you made and how it turned out. Thanks Walks. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
I would love to come to dinner!! It looks delicious 😋 Rest up, Anita 😊

Wow, your feast looks delicious and your dinner party I’m sure enjoyed. I wish you a speedy healing!

Hey Anita, you are certainly a great cook and I bet your friends and family love coming over for dinner. Too bad this time things didn't go as planned! Hope your hand injury clears up soon!! Great tip about flattening the cans out. We're glad to see that you did get together with your friends in the end at that restaurant. Let's hope 2025 is a great one and no more injuries!!
Thanks Steve and Sue. Yes it was a bit of a let down- over worked my hand- I should have known better. Still the dinner was delightful and No dishes! The hand is slowly regaining it's strength and the inflammation receding. Have a wonderful wintery warm Wednesday both of you. 💝🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Looks like you were preparing a real feast for your friends. I'm sorry to hear about your injury. Take it easy and have a speedy recovery ❤
Thanks Audrone. I am healing daily. It was lovely to still have the dinner though different. Eating with friends is so special. Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy your Wednesday. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
You Rule Breaker!! 🤣 What a wonderful dinner you have planned!
Oh yes! Best laid plans- have a habit of changing 🤣! The meal out was delightful too thankfully. Rules, well my kids used to say they are there to be broken 🤣! It's their fault I have strayed. Have a wonderful Wednesday Kim. Thanks for the lovely comment and support. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
I'll be happy to come to dinner Anita...yummy! Paprika, interesting because we call that a bell pepper...I always find it interesting how we call the same thing something different...loved watching you cook all this food...while I was watching I was remembering this and knew it wasn't going to be dinner at your place...so sorry about your hand, but you do have lots of good food in the freezer now...and had a lovely dinner out...sending healing light and prayers to a hand that isn't feeling that well at the moment..🙏 enjoy your time away from the kitchen!
Yes I thought I'd add the 'Bell pepper' text just to show I am all inclusive 🤣! Donna, you are always welcome. Just give me a day's warning. Yes, my freezer is well stocked. My hand is slowly returning to some for of normal. Typing is still an issue. It's the tiny movements that are the bug bear still. Not to worry- I've had worse situations. This too will pass ( as my dad would say " before you're a lad!). Have a wonderful Wednesday Donna. Say hi to John for me. 💝🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Anita hope your feeling better today! Everything looked delicious once you’re feeling better you’ll have to reschedule with your friends for a part 2 celebration of the new year. ~Cara 🥰
Thanks so much Cara. Indeed. The freezer is fully stocked. Damage slowly ebbing. Silly me. Just forgot to be gentle with myself. Thanks lovelies. Always nice to hear from you. 💝🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Your cooking looks top notch Anita im sure its better than any restaurant.. hope you go on ok with the hand 👌 Glyn
Thanks so much Glyn. Yes the damage is healing nicely. I'm taking it slow. I'll have another go at the dinner in a few weeks. The rest is in the freezer 🤣! Have a great Wednesday. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
All that wonderful food looks delicious, Anita. So sorry about your hand. It looks like you had a wonderful time out instead. Happy to read you are on the mend. 🧡❤️
Hello Jane, thanks for the comment and your time watching. Your support is much appreciated. Yes, slowly I'm regaining the use of the hand again. One day at a time. Have a joyful Wednesday Jane. 🏡🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Everything was looking so good too. I do wish you a speedy recovery. It looks like you all had an amazing time anyways. The recycling process in the States is garbage. I really wish we would adopt the same process you do in Europe. That is a really great idea on taking the bottom off the tin and smashing it. Thanks for sharing Anita.
Hi Dan. Thanks for leaving a comment. Yes our rubbish is your trash 🤣! Sorry couldn't help myself there. I think if we are just aware - then things can change. It's knowing about an issue which helps change thinking about it. Glad to have you support the channel Dan. Thanks so much.💝🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Hey there Anita
That’s what I need to do, gather all my friends together.
You have such a beautiful smile…
You’ve certainly cooked up a feast.
I have t bad chilli con can since I was a little girl.
I love comfort food.
Hope your hand is much better soon.
Hope it was a fun time in spite of your injury. At least you didn’t have all the cleaning up after 11 guests.
Glad to read it’s healing. ❤️
@@CandidlySharonH Sharon, get that invitation out and get cracking. Friends for dinner is a fabulous energy booster. I think my husband liked that smile too. It’s our anniversary today 💕! The meal out was delicious - amd for me no kess to clean up after 😂. The injury is easing - I’m being causciously careful, Have a great Friday ( it’s Thursday morning here) Chhers and thakns for the lovely comment and your ongoing support. 💜🇳🇱🙋🏼♀️🥝
But we guessed the subject matter was gonna be pottery 😂 Seriously though, you know this is like our favorite subject! Watching right now, but figured we'd say early on since we're never the first ones or anything 😁
@@FeinDining 🥇🏆congratulations. You are indeed first. Love you guys. I’m honoured. I’ll do another dinner party and invite you- March 8th the cousins are coming. Be there 💃🥂🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
In answer to your question ... room for two more?!! 😍😍 Ooh, "fake mince!" 👍 Nice to see you're recycling - great tips! I've only just eaten lunch, but I'm already feeling hungry after watching you prepare your delicious-looking food! 😋Oh no, your poor hand. I'm so sorry, Anita. Sending hugs and healing thoughts ❤Lovely pics at the end. Take care and all the best to you from us both x x
@@The_Brit_Girls thank you once again for the lovely comment. Haha the ‘fake’ mince is yummier than the real thing. Food videos encourage my yearn for food too, apologies for that 😂. My hand is on the mend - slowly. It’s a nuisance to put it mildly. Have a lovely Thursday ladies. Love you. 🥰🇳🇱🙋🏼♀️🥝
We flattened our tins right down like that, too. Nowadays I'm a bit lazier so I only squish the one side. Looks like some awesome dishes! Wow, that was a pretty foggy day! The beer would help the flavors for sure. Great tip with the tomato sauce/paste - I find a whole jar such a commitment as Lyndon doesn't eat tomatoes but I still enjoy pasta with tomato sauce. Sorry to hear about your hand - hope it gets better.
@@DonnaTaibossigai yes, we had lots of those ‘can’t see for looking’ days in anrow Donna. Quite depressive. Happy to report they’ve made aay for mediocre but clear dampish days. Darkness does fall later now so there is hope on the horizon. The freezer is fully stocked with precooked meals and the hand is slowly improving. Thanks for the lovely comment. Have a great Thursday. 👏🇳🇱🙋🏼♀️🥝
Morning
So sorry to hear about your injury, hope you are on the mend now.
What a wonderful feast!
I've started using half turkey mince and half Quorn mince when i make a spag Bol or chilli. Morgs doesnt even notice its not all meat.
Hope you're having a good weekend ❤
Thanks, my wrist is fine as long as I rest it occasionally and don't over exert it. Wearing a brace for now. I so love to cook. Slowly picking up the tasks in the kitchen. I'll give the group another shot at dinner here soon🤣! Though going out was great too 👌! Thanks for the support and watching. Have a great week. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
Hope you heal quickly. Hope the soup did not go to waste.
All the prepped food is in the freezer David and Lindsey. Not a drop wasted. Thanks for dropping by. 🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝💝
Hello lovely lady and hostess with the mostest! All looks yummy! That mince does look good for a vegi option but we like our meat too much! Oh no Achillies Thumb ouch sorry to hear about this but glad you are recovering nicely! Hope you all enjoyed the eat all you can buffet and at least you have plenty made and in your freezer so you can rest your thumb! Have a good week! Sorry about the delay in watching this got back from a fab weekend in the Lakes last night (Tuesday)! Much love ❤
Thank you so much 🤗 - and I appreciate the fact that you are on to it so quickly after your return from a Great Escape. Yes, plenty of reserves in freezer and it really wasn't a punishment eating at the restaurant. Thanks as always for the support your lovely couple you. Enjoy your Wednesday. 💝🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝😎
Hi Anita, wow the meal yoou were cooking looked amazing, you are such a good cook. Id certainly come for dinner. Oh no!, so sorry your hand injury happened at this time, do hope you are on the mend, the restaurant looked very nice though, take care x Julie and Tony x
Thanks for the good wishes. Slowly coming right and I really am careful now not to over stress it. I'll be cooking again soon for sure. Miss it. Have a lovely Sunday ( Archie too) 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
The dishes look amazing, ms Anita💜💜,hope your arm is better now💜
It is getting better all the time Sudha. Just need to be a bit careful for a while. Thanks for the support and well wishes. Have a lovely Wednesday. 🌸🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Can I join for dinner😊 the meal looks delicious ❤❤
Any time Gemini 🤣! The kitchen is my happy space. Love to cook. Thanks so much for the compliment. I do so appreciate that. Sending happy Wednesday vibes your way. ⭐️🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
@IamaDutch-Kiwi u are welcome dear
That sure was cooking up a feast. I once used hazelnuts for meat in a spag bol sauce and it looked suspiciously like meat after being cooked in the slow cooker. As long as it tastes great then so is a meat alternative to me. Never frozen tomato puree. Sorry to hear about the hand but glad it's healing. A good excuse to not do any cooking for a few days. Then again I know you enjoy cooking 🙂
Oh yes those hazelnuts would have been a delicious substitute. Oh the tomato puree is such a money and resource saver. No loss of taste. And so handy. The hand is improving slowly. Silly me. Dinner out was delicious. Thanks for the kind comment Paul. Enjoy your Wednesday. 🎉🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Hi Anita you are brave cooking for 11 but got to say you have it down perfectly 🤠👌🏻(hope that your right hand is better soon Anita )
Very best wishes Simon 🤠👍
Thank you so much Simon. Such a nuisance that I couldn't complete the menu. The dinner out was yum too though. I get a re-run in March when the cousins come for dinner 🤣🤣! We shall just have to wait and see how that goes. The injury is lingering though slowly ebbing. Enjoy your weekend. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
@ good to hear it’s getting better slowly 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Sorry about your hand and I wish it fast recovery 🙏😢 I’ve been having join and muscle pain from garden work that this year I won’t be hard on myself again or I could become disable. Also when I was 17 I played judo with my classmate and broke 2 pieces of my backbone. Lucky I still could walk until now 🙏
It’s fun to have good friends coming for dinner 🥰 As I grew up in Europe so all my good friends are spread around everywhere and maybe only one or two manage to visit me in a year here in Thailand 😅 I love cooking and baking so it’s boring for me not being able to share yummy dishes with them. So whenever I’m back to Europe and visit each of them I end up cooking for them everyday 😂 It’s a happiness! Hope one day to welcome you either Thailand or Switzerland then I can cook and you rest 🥰💪
That ginger cake you mentioned, was it pain d’épices from Alsace? Or it’s the one you have in Netherlands?
And pls. do not reply until your hand is completely healed ok 🙏🙏🥰🥰💪💪
Oh yes, our bodies do have their failures don't they Maia. I will keep this short. Lots to answer🤣! Sorry to hear about your aches and pains. Take good care of your self Maia. It's the only body we will get. Thank you my friend for the comment and good wishes. I hope your Wednesday will be a happy one. 🌺🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
Anita darling ❤, u r a great chef
One day ℹ reality wanna taste ur delicious 😋 food
Can I be ur guest 😊
You sure can Aishu. That would be wonderful. 🥰🥳
Too funny about the vegetarian meat 😂 Did anyone notice? Oh, I guess they didn’t get to try it. Sorry to hear about your hand. 😢 Everything was looking good up until then.
Oh I will get my chance another time August. I'll disguise it in other ways. My wrist is healing slowly- I am being careful with it. Thanks for watching dear friend. Happy weekend. 🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝👌
Friends coming for dinner? 🤐 😲
Spaghetti Bolognese? Couple of nights ago I watched someone from Japan having frozen Spaghetti Bolognese for breakfast. 😂
People only know they're having fake mince if you tell them. I use Quorn mince which doesn't have soya in it. Which reminds me. I've been meaning to make pies with it for simply ages.
Do I use paprika in Bolognese? I can't remember??
The beer can return system in Iowa insists you leave the can whole or they won't refund the deposit.
We just call them peppers. Onions hmm. Sure that was stock you put in? I hang my cloves in the wardrobe. 😂
What what?? 😲🚑🚑 (I type my replies as I'm watching the videos in case you haven't guessed. That's why they get to be so long). 😁 Glad you're on the mend. Have you tried the voice typing app thingy?
Hi Boppy. I will keep it short- so many responses and my hand doesn't like the keyboard yet. Thank you dear supporter of my videos. You are fabulous and I so appreciate you. One can use paprika in anything Boppy - feel that freedom! Love how you type your replies while watching. Have a wonderful Wednesday Boppy. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
@@IamaDutch-Kiwi I just added some paprika to my clotted cream. I'm not very keen on the results. 😂😂
bit too far for us to come for dinner food looks tasty
🥸fully viewed🤖Au🦘☑thumbs up👍👍
Thanks Billy. You would be more than welcome if closer 😅! Happy Wednesday/ Thursday to you 👌🇳🇱🙋♀️🥝
