Am just sitting down for 5 mins at the end of my 3/4HC - am making some progress, but not really in the right direction. Must be firm, now....
Still, I have:
* Inspected the fridge and found 3 desperately broken eggs (yes: DH took the shopping in from Sainsbury's end of last week and dropped the carrier with two boxes of eggs in it... :eek:) and two desperately wrinkled lemon halves (you know when the skin is rock-hard, but the inside is still juicy if you cut the end off...:cool:)
* So I made a lemon and blackberry drizzle cake...which is in the oven now
* And I found 1 large sprouting onion and two red wrinkly peppers and a pack of chicken pieces we were going to eat last night, but got in too late to cook...
* So that's gone in the oven as well, and will soon have a jar of red Thai curry sauce poured over it. Dinner sorted!
So I'm making progress on the fridge item of Pigpen's list, which I forgot to say "Thanks very much" for when I logged on earlier.
Dishwasher is on with all the cooking utensils/bowls in it, and I've cleared away all the flour etc, so I've got no excuse now and will have to go and clean the rest of the kitchen.
Off I go, chasing Longtermlurker & AnW'sMum - will stop at 1:00pm for a break, I think. Catch me if you can!
