    Last night's dinner of sauerkraut with sausage and pork hock was excellent.  Leftovers tonight which is fine by me.  Also that we ate out in the garden last night and plan on that again this evening.

    As a celebration, parent has cooked a roast beef dinner. I have just enquired if she is completely mad.

    I have a rare evening alone as DH is out with friends, so Frank and I will have a movie night, sirloin with creamy mushrooms and strawberries and Greek yogurt whilst watching Wicked Little Letters 🙌  Frank has a new chew and no doubt any offcuts from the steak.

    My darling husband has many good qualities but one of his failings is the fact that unless a film has romans in it or is set in the WW1 or 2 he has little interest 🫣 luckily, for the most part, I’d rather read a book 😊
    Are you my sister in law???

    Every night this week we have had prosciutto, salami, cottage cheese, cheeses,  and fresh fruit with yogurt. 

    Husband is on motorway and it's still 32C. He says he may do gluten free pasta with beans and a sauce.

    Free fish (friend caught) BBQ was planned for today, but the weather isn’t playing ball, so will just have fridge pickings tonight, lots of salad, meats and cheeses to use up.

    @Islandmaid  more mackerel?  

    OH has said for me to decide but to not make it too heavy.  I've been saying about using up some of the chicken in the freezer so will do a bit of that on the bbq (whatever the weather) with some greek flatbreads, hummous and tarmasalata and a bit of salad.
