I had this soup which is both easy and delicious, I definitely recommend it, and a couple of slices of rye bread to dip in it followed by a decaf coffee.4

A big thankyou to @goldfinches for the recipe. I have all the ingredients and bought the ras el hanout for 40p thinking it would be useful. So will make it.
Last night we had an easy dinner, I had halloumi with some tomato and cucumber, hummus and pitta. Husband had ham, egg, beans and chips.

Welcome back florenceem I hope you had a nice time away.
I was just going to recommend a genius way to cook halloumi.
I bought one of the crinkle cutters and now use it to slice my halloumi before cooking in a hot pan. Absolutely perfect when its cooked. Like these.

We ate at SA as it was lunch after new member's service followed by an afternoon meeting.
We are at a funeral tomorrow morning and eating at SA in the evening before the Alpha course - Mr F and I are leading tables.3 -
Dinner tonight was a JO Chicken, mishroom and mustard pie.3

I made this rye roll which turned out very tasty even though I haven't got the knobbly rolling pin, brushed it with olive oil and didn't dare cut mine into slices so baked it whole. I had this red cabbage and some leftover roasted courgette with it followed by a pink grapefruit and a decaf coffee.
PS I used some of the pearl barley from this recipe for a night time milk because I thought it would go nicely with egg and goat's cheese and it does taste good. I can't vouch for the efficacy of the drink yet but watch this space.
