Wednesday Evening- Artichokes

We got back to Mary and Ron's and found out that Mary had a little bit of a faint earlier that afternoon so was not feeling well and was laying down. We started to make stuffed artichokes at about 5 and once Tony figured out the newfangled oven we put them on to roast far an hour around 6 pm. Will was chatting with Mary and Ron and they were all having a great time. talk turned to construction methods and the olympics. We have been kind of watching what is showing down here and we have been keeping pretty much abreast of the latest medals for Canada. We checked the artichokes at 7 and they needed to be cooked some more so put them back in for another 30 minutes. At 730 I checked them, basted them and I put them in for another 20 minutes with the convection oven on this time. at 8 they still were not done so I put them in for another 20 minutes at a higher temperature. at 830 I served them. Will and I had been chatting with Mary while Ron and Tony watched the Hockey game. the Artichokes were only just done and was maybe not the best dish I have ever made but we managed. Desert was great. Icecream. we were all bushed and Will said good night right away. Ron, Mary and Dennie stayed up to watch a bit of the olympics but around 10 called it a night also.
