    We had our usual dinner on a Monday, salad with potatoes. Today it was jacket potatoes. I made a mushroom quiche and breaded chicken to go with it. Turned out to be very nice. I had a plain chocolate bounty for afters. Husband finished off the crumble.
  • Homemade flatbreads with refried beans, guacamole, salsa, cheese and soured cream.  Still have rhubarb crumble left if we want it and our usual cup of coffee.
