We had lunch out today - very decadent, not very frugal, but the sun was shining so we thought "why not?" So our main meal was at lunchtime, and we both had scampi and chips followed by pistachio and raspberry tart with a flat white coffee. Yum!

Dinner tonight is the remains of yesterday's lunch, which was a hm puff pastry pie with salmon and ground elder, which tastes rather nice and is growing free in my garden, so much better than shop bought spinach! The pie was a hit - will definitely be making it again :T

Have just inhaled a Ristorante Fungi pizza which I was thinking about the entire time I was in yoga class

Tuna salad for lunch today and a risotto for supper with peas, mushrooms and lemon, skyr and fruit if we want it and a cup of black coffee.

We had fun last night with a massive birthday Chinese takeaway for 8, eaten under the stars with wine flowing and good company - love this weather x

A little more sedate tonight, just the 2 of us with BBQ steak, watercress salad and new potatoes

Also made a Catalan style rice pudding flavoured with orange zest and cinnamon, will serve it cold with a caramelised top

I've just put a chicken curry in the SC, so we'll have that tonight with rice, a hm veg curry from the freezer and some hm garlic and coriander naans, also from the freezer.

Oh ho, He Who Knows brought me back the first picking of rhubarb from the allotment this afternoon, half of it is simmering on low in the slow cooker to have as compote, I find the pieces stay whole and all I add is a little boiling water at the start, cooks to perfection in a couple of hours and the other half is in the oven under a ginger crumble topping for the next few days puddings.....I think it's finally spring!!!

Indian potato, poppadoms, paneer curry and fish curry.

Ice cream for afterwards.

We had ground elder, nettle and cheese omelette for lunch yesterday - I do like eating weeds, it feels very frugal indeed! I'm not sure about the flavour of nettles though - it tasted a bit pungent. I'm going to persevere, it took me ages to like spinach and kale too! So possibly nettle soup for lunch today

Dinner last night was jacket potato, beans and cheese - easy and filling. We've got a chicken to roast for tonight. Have a good day all! (Especially if you're in the marathon!!)
