What are you making for dinner?

Oh dear Kerri, that sounds expensive. I hope it turns out to be something simple and cheap to fix!

Pie has been made : leftover roast chicken has been diced and added to sauteed chopped onions and mushrooms in gravy with a thinly sliced potato topping for tonight’s supper.

Thankyou for your kind works about the car - no news on the diagnosis yet, not surprising as I expect the mechanic hasn't even got around to looking at it given he wasn't expecting it this morning. Hubby is off this week so I have use of his car but it makes you realise how hard it is without one. As he said 'days gone by not everyone had cars' but as I pointed out, times past there was a grocer on every estate / corner, a post office in walkable distance, buses that ran more than once an hour. Society just isn't geared up like that any longer, sad really as there are many who can't or don't drive.

Anyway...dinner.....didn't finish work til late so nuked the last of the cauli and pasta cheese bake thing from last week. That's it used up now.

JIL, how do you make sourdough sandwich bread? I’m making boule’s only and as all my fussy !!!!!!s don’t like crust they don’t eat it. I’m also trying to find tall tin for making bread, nothing as such anywhere.

You buy a pack of sour dough bread mix from tesco!! It had been in the cupboard for a while. I put it on the pizza setting in the breadmaker and then shaped it into a loaf and let it rise. I baked it in the oven. It makes lovely toast which is really what I wanted it for.
I did make the focaccia from scratch.

Tonight we had all day breakfast, with sourdough toast and the leftover mash from yesterday made into tattie scones.

Slow cooker chicken curry for us tonight. A lazy version just using a jar of Sharwoods sauce we have in the cupboard. Served with rice.

Hubby picked up some venison sausages from local butcher, so will use up sundays cauli cheese, cavelo nero and sweet potato mash with red onion gravy

Only had a very light breakfast and found myself at around 12pm on the other side of town. Had craving for cafe food so had a set breakfast 3.... an egg, 1 sausage, 2 slices of bacon, chips and baked beans for £5.50. Not great quality but scratched that 6 monthly itch!

Need to use up some meat bones in the freezer what with Christmas coming so am in the process of making the ‘Meat Stock’ recipe from ‘Pasta Grannies’ pg 203 which I’ll pare with some poached vegetables and wilted spinach. After lunch I think I’ll leave the pasta out especially as I’m working from home and haven’t done much physical work to deserve the carbs.
