According to the car it was 26 when I went out at 3pm but that could be because it was sitting in the sun 🌞Lazy food day lunch was using up the watermelon and feta.

I am going to do a Quorn stir fry with hoisin sauce today to use up various veg. I have carrots, yellow pepper, broccoli and courgette. I'm not sure whether to have it for lunch or dinner.0 -
Good morning everyone,
Yes the chicken was delicious N2BT and there's LOs for lunch.

Its a lovely day here again - 26degrees in your car yesterday was probably about right Brambling, we got up to 20c and that difference is about right.
Jumped on a bus early this morning needed a F&V shop as I'm down to just a courgette, a handful of ss peas which I'll use tonight.
Picked up some deli rolls and sliced roast beef for a sandwich at lunchtime and tonight its some gammon from the freezer, courgette & sweetcorn fritters, ss peas.

Dry and fairly mild today but didn’t see the sun until about an hour ago! Been at home today (which has confused me) so bed stripped and bedding all washed and dried on the line. I’ve dusted and hoovered stairs, landing and bedroom but must go and remake bed before too much longer…
Posh fishfinger sandwich for lunch and made creamy sausage, leek and mushroom pasta tonight, served with broccoli 😋0 -
Dry but no sun today I didn't mind the slight chill to the day it suited the garden pottering
A small portion of LO cod in roasted tomato and pepper sauce for lunch, it tasted better today having matured in the fridge. Prawn salad for dinner with potato saladLife shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anais Nin0 -
