Sorry Tilly, but I had to laugh out loud at this oneI had the same reaction to a J Monroe dish - life is definitely too short for duff meals - that is Nigella's mantra too
Glad to hear that you are feeling better in yourself - and YAY to correct prescribing of medication that truly tackles your condition :T
Have a good weekend - keep on taking care of YOU

Evening all, great to see some improvement each day now
Mr T has made maple pulled pork and he's serving with HM cornbread, a spicy bean dish and tomato salsa. Smells mmmmm.
A joint of gammon has been in the SC all day and that's going to be coated with chilli and red currant jelly and quickly popped in the oven.
A chicken has been chopped up and is marinating in piri peri ready for Monday.
71p Tilly Tidied to MOS.
Not as much achieved as I would like but it's early days. I've sorted a kitchen cupboard and fridge today. A few bits used up and the jars/bottles decluttered.
I seem to be having GGs sleeping challenges at the moment and I intend having a very long walk with the dogs tomorrow.

Just wanted to pop in Tilly & wish you better soon, my mum has had the same as you, she's been off work for nearly three weeks with it which is astonishing as she's only had about 3 days off work in nearly 40 years (one of which was to have me :rotfl:) And my two GP friends were telling me that there's bern a nationwide spike in pneumonia this winter linked to this bug, so please do take care xx
