    Good morning everyone, 
    I'm glad your new is almost better Farway.
    Thankfully now at the tidy up stage with the admin so might manage to do some much needed tidying up on the domestic front!
    Fridge bits for lunch. Sausage casserole for dinner.
  • Lovely and sunny here, I went for a walk around the bay it was so nice to get a bit of sun on my face.
     
    I had enough leftover risotto to have for lunch and for tonight, similar to Farway, I'll do a chicken and mushroom thingy  :)

  • Another productive work day, this time from home. Bit of a none day weather wise but fairly mild still.

    LO chicken and pesto pasta for lunch. Had my usual Tuesday early tea of beans with toast ready for swimming later.

    Physio appointment has left me a little sore tonight, new physio and some new exercises for my hip.  I carried my umbrella from the car as it looked very grey but the rain held off 🙂

    LO Mac n cheese for a late lunch after physio.  Chinese Pork belly slices with rice and veg

    Grey, dry & dull & mild morning. Just a grey sort of day TBH

    Yesterday's crumpet lunch went wonky, they'd gone mouldy. :( With my knee & not eating I've been binning food that normally would have been eaten, mouldy crumpets are an example.
    Had some toast instead BTW

    Lunch today should be better, fresh loaf so use up fried egg sarnie
    Dinner, YS RM macaroni cheese defrosting. I'm slowly trying to make freezer space, just in case, for any Christmas stuff

    Good morning everyone, 
    Another gloomy but mild day here.
    A catch up on domestics is needed today so will tackle the bathroom after I've finished my cuppa then take it from there.
    Fridge gravel for lunch. Sausage casserole again tonight, unfortunately my sis had to cancel our usual Tuesday night dinner so lots of LOs. I'm trying not to add to the freezer in preparation for Christmas and there's too much LO for lunch so round 2 tonight served with oven chips and fried eggs to use it up. 
  • Another lovely sunny morning although it was somewhat chilly first thing. I had a walk around town and went to pay a couple of bills, settled down in front of the telly now to see what the Chancellor has in store for us.
     
    Soup from the freezer stash for lunch with a slice of toast.
     
    Roast vegetable & pasta bake for tea.

  • I went to have a massage, but ended up having reflexology instead. I had toast before I left and then had crackers with vegan cheese and pickle when I got home. I have some unusual yellow satsumas so I had two of them as well. They were normal orange colour under the peel.

    I watched a bit of the budget, but I will just read the gist later.
    2025 GOALS
    19/25 classes
    24/100 books



  • Slightly frustrating day but have had a good swim this evening so feel better.

    Tortellini with tuna, sweetcorn and sun dried tomatoes for lunch. Tuna steak with tomatoey lentils and spinach tonight.
