    kerrie_gt - yes you can use sour cream with/instead of the milk.

    @goldfinches that lemon ice cream sounds delicious, I may have to make some of that at the weekend. I bought a Magimix Gelato Expert a few years ago (for the grand price of £8, I think) at one of the Nettlebed sales, but don't use it nearly enough so this is my push to get it out of the cupboard again!

    Tonight's dinner choice is at the request of Mister CJ, so we will be having sausage, egg and chips :)

    OH went shopping yesterday so last night's dinner was Tasco's KFC style chicken and chips with some salad for me.  Towards the end of cooking bunged in the left over bbq thigh from the other night to use it up and to compensate for there being only 1 thigh in the new pack, all else legs.

    Tonight is to be lamb's liver and cornwall new potatoes, likely with some cream and fresh chives.

    I finally get to have the chilli crab linguine I have been craving all week! The linguine and red chilli came free from the community fridge, and the tinned white crab meat chunks were from my Brexit-Cupboard-of-Doom stores, so an inexpensive dinner. I even have a couple of dinky bottles of chilli oil to sprinkle over the dish, they were left over from a lunch meeting we had at work which included a Wagamama delivery 😀
