Hooray to free wood!:j

Our usual bottom of the fridge omelette turned into a bottom of the freezer omelette - freezer yielded a chunk of blue cheese, some chopped yellow & green peppers and a mystery chopped green (I suspect choi sum stems). The veg was tossed in the pan with some pancetta and then bound together with a few eggs & sprinkle with cheese. - YUM & three less things in our freezer!

We scored a free frozen steak pie today - groceries delivered with an extra item - I ordered cheap frozen cod cakes, but they arrived with a meat pie as well - that's a free dinner I suppose!

Trog - mines is full of plums and rasps.

potential more free wood at work again this week - woop. Goodluck finding a tame builder.

RT - just mental with work, hibernation sounds good though as do those omlettes - I've been designing, lets just say I garden designer I am not, nor am I very natural at it either.

Auld mutts and new tricks and all that, I'm better at digging.

Just doing the whole fridge/freezer rock and roll thing

Making squash roast for soup.

Have boxed up some teas (steak and ale) and working on a meal plan for the week.

Waves to all must do some spends/move some cash around. I've also a couple invoices to pay.

Need a new/old kitchen table.......might do some research

Washing machine is whirring and free wood stove is on. Must top logs ujp again, although its been so warm, we've hardly needed it on.

Good for drying washing tho.

Waves.
