This is not cooking

I opened a pouch of Trader Joe’s Dal Makhani for supper last night. And I reheated the dread curry, just to try and get rid of it (I would have suceeded, too, if Number One son hadn't contracted stomach flu). For the record, real food does not look like this:

The Dal had some good heat to it, but I really should learn how to make it myself. Especially since I read this morning that Indian is the new Chinese.

But I did actually cook a bit: I started some Meyer lemon marmelade (it needs to sit overnight) and made a Meyer lemon tart with a wheat-free pâte brisée (a recipe I found by searching French gluten free sites). The crust didn’t add much, but it didn’t detract, and even looked rather nice.
