HM pasties, peas, gravy.

Had portobello mushroom, green lentil, merlot, carrot, thyme and marmite stew with dumplings from a Good Housekeeping recipe I spotted last week that slotted beautifully into the meal plan. Came out delicious and the dumplings were much easier than I thought they'd be, I haven't made them for years and now can't believe I've been avoiding them all this time. Had planned to eat up y/s mixed green salad too but didn't have space after the stew and polishing off the last 100ml of the merlot!
Night all, goldfinches.
