    Another glorious day. Frank was walked at 6 and is now flat on his back dozing, which is is very favourite thing.

    have chopped a melon up to chill in the fridge for later pickings, having the chicken thighs with salad for dinner.

    also made a jug of black coffee to turn into iced coffee 😋

    Missed the farm shop which closed (surprisingly to me) at 5.  Too much chatter with our hair guy kept us to almost 5:30.  So discussion on the drive home, what should be do, go to Lidl to get some steaks? what about Sainsbugs? Oh I know did you hear Ken Bruce talking about cooking a chicken?     So we popped into M&S bought a high priced but excellent bird that OH roasted with lots of butter and had that with just a baguette.  Ate outside and tried to entice a visiting mog to come closer with promises of tasty tidbits but no luck!!  There was also a very nice bottle of German wine.

    I found some fresh pasta in the fridge so had that with a tomato sauce from home grown cherry tomatoes and prawns.

    I will be glad to see the end of the tomato plant. The dog keeps helping herself and we keep finding tomatoes around the house in strange places.
  • An even hotter day here than yesterday and so I'm having a very late dinner of tabbouleh, courgette pickle, gherkins, radishes, lettuce and cucumber also with iced coffee.

    Butter chicken curry was planned - might just have fruit and yoghurt 🏖️

    were at a local food festival all weekend, looking forward to it.

    we were planning to take Frank as its dog friendly, but in this heat I don’t think it’s fair on Frank, so will leave him home, it’ll be 4-5 hours longest time he’s been left alone 🫣 but I’d rather he be bored than cooked 🥺

    Yes you wouldn't want to come home to a hot dog.  (oh come on! you must have been expecting that!!!)

    I cooked chicken breast fillets last night -  coated them in peri peri mayo and spiced up breadcrumbs - yummy in a wrap with salad.
    I think chicken again tonight.
