    Had a voucher to use at M&S so dragged the OH off to the tip (get rid of excess garden greenery) and then to M&S where we got their dinner for £12 - chicken stuffed with cheese, sliced potatoes in sauce and citron tarts.  Of course then on the way home the OH pondered loudly about whether the chicken and potatoes would fit in the tiddly grill oven given that the big oven is dead.  I'm sure we will manage some how!!

    Well he had said steak and chips but he appears to be prepping confit.  Perhaps that's for tomorrow.  Meanwhile the things that I need to do in the kitchen can't be done as he's left a mess everywhere including leaving out things used to make breakfast.  I did want to use the cutting board to cut some paper for Christmas cards.  Don't want to use the dining table for that in case the knife slips and gouge the table.  I wouldn't mind wrecking the kitchen counter as it's all going in the bin in a couple of weeks.

  • Veggie pot pie with leeks and cheese. I've just realised I don't have a pie dish, but one of my trusty pyrex will have to do.
