Apparently the jet stream is going to move early next week- how on earth they can tell I've no idea (esp as it's sat where it is for weeks ... and weeks).
I love Risotto and tried to make it years ago and it took HOURS - swore blind I'd never do it again but then found a recipe in a Mr A magazine (freeby!) and adapted it a bit and came out with the following:

Really, really easy - and TBH I don't measure any of the veg or chicken now - it's however much I've got!Does Masie like the rain?
She's not too bad - and will turn around if she's had enough! She wasn't that keen on her lunchtime walk (but it was pelting down then) & turned around after a couple of mins - but we had a reasonably long walk this morning (again raining!) and tonight (still raining:eek:)
However, she does love the resulting muddy puddles :rotfl::eek:Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
