Tuesday ~ Master bedroom and landing!
Level One
[STRIKE]
Strip wash and replace the bedding!
[/STRIKE]Declutter the floor.. laundry gone, shoes gone.. etc
Morning. Snow here in Sunny Devon. Main aim this morning is to get to work, since car won't start and RAC massively overloaded, 2 hr wait and 40 min just to get through on the 'phone.
eta still no sign of RAC.
Butternut squash curry doesn't really have a recipe, but...
put clove of garlic and a bit of all spices you fancy in a whizzer with some olive oil
cumin, coriander, coriander seed, mustard seed, fennel seed, turmeric, fenugreek, cinnamon, ginger, chilli flakes et.c
fry an onion in this, add butternut squash and any other veg/quorn/meat/lentils whatever. Fry some more. Add a tin chopped tomatoes and enough water to cover it, simmer 'til veg tender.
I guess the meat should be cooked before you add it, but am vegetarian, so don't worry about cooking meat!Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -
Hope your DH is OK Helen
I'm clean, polished and dressed. Finished up one body lotion and one rosehip oil too, so that's some grotty stuff out of the bathroom. Teeth have been thoroughly scrubbed (I slacked off on the interdental brushes towards the end of the year, and I can tell :rolleyes:). So off to clear and hoover the upstairs floors (which means sorting out the cupboard on the landing and dealing with the stuff that's been congregating in the spare room doorway for the last week - I've been stepping over it)

We've had snow/ice now since the 17 December :rolleyes: only the 30th was clear then it started again, apparently the cold front is from Siberia and it just overpowers the warm front coming from the west hence the snow and not rain *grumbles* anyway car currently defrosting with engine running (saves my hands).
