    Lunch is the remaining spinach and feta rolls, which were delicious 😋 

    dinner, a pair of (local farm) rump steaks from our freezer stash with Padron peppers, salad and the remaining jersey royals for him.

    bright and breezy here - had a second solar battery fitted Friday, so the more sunshine the better 🤗

    I made leek soup for lunch, and tonight I’m doing roasted sausages with the roasted broccoli and Parmesan suggested by @Islandmaid (thank you!)

    Strawberries (huge Finest packs x 2, reduced at T’s from £3.40 each to 50p …. and they’re perfect!) and cream for puds over the next few days.

    Beef and Yorkshire puddings with veg here. Inlaws will have  dinners plated up for Monday and Tuesday.
    I'm not sure what I will have, not been feeling too good the past couple of days so may make some soup.  Failing that probably jacket potato and beans.

    Lunch was an ASDA Mediterranean style salad, with added organic cherry tomatoes,  beetroot and cucumber plus prosciutto di Parma and Newman's Own Italian Style Dressing which was way too vinegary - and I like apple cider vinegar ! 

    Supper could be kebabs from the freezer (meat, harissa Halloumi and chicken) or  TGI Friday's nacho cheese and jalapeños loaded potato skins with Mediterranean style vegetables or lamb shish kebabs, garlic sauce and salad from local kebab shop.

    There's the gammon roast and jersey potatoes with a "hunter's" sauce.  (essentially a package sauce mix from Knorr that is meat and mushroom based - only seen it in Canada and in Germany where it's sold as Knorr jaeger's sauce)

    Absolutely hoofing down with rain this morning.

    GS with us for the rest of the week, so meals will be to suit.  Roast chicken thighs tonight with roasted med veg cous cous and garlic yoghurt. Mini cornetto for pud for small hands 😉

    Fridge raid tonight to use up the left over gammon from yesterday and various other bits.  There's a lot of salad stuff to go with it.  I'm wondering if he who thinks he should be obeyed is expecting boiled eggs with his.....I know he'll pout if I just do some for myself.

    I'm still eating up the fritters combined with home-made red onion coleslaw and lots of ys tomatoes, turned colder here again so I'm wondering about soup and/or jacket potatoes.

    A very 5 yo friendly version of sweet and sour chicken, with egg fried rice, spring rolls and prawn crackers 👏

    Movie night tonight - popcorn and Minions 🤗

    crept into Noah’s room this morning just before 7 as things were too quiet, he was reading a book to Frank on the bed 😍 every boy needs a dog friend

    That's so sweet!

    Peppered mackerel with a little side salad, a chunk of lemon and some bread and butter for lunch, and I've made chilli for tonight (leftovers for tomorrow night).
