Saffron Short Grain Rice

"What's for dinner" has never struck a nerve with me until becoming a father. Now having kids depending on you to feed them, you really need to sort this out. Good thing @monatheism is quick on her feet with putting something together.

 

Combining rice, saffron, sausage, squid, shrimp, egg, bacon and sweet peas together dinner is served.

 

This also proved a great time for me to take a photo of it for my daily. I quickly threw a bed sheet over our coffee table, setup to umbrellas lower camera left and upper camera right and figured out the lighting ration (again going for a bit more light in the back). Once dinner was ready, I took my plate and set it down for it's photo.

 

Time to eat.
