I had to go out and get cash out for my haircut next week and it is more chilly than I realised.
I've had the last of the fresh pineapple and a cup of green tea. I might have a veggie burger with salad in a bun as I feel quite hungry.0 -
Nice sunny day again. Been catching up on chores whilst waiting in for a delivery form that large river company.

Good afternoon everyone,
I hope the cold doesn't come to anything Farway.
Dry but grey and cold here. I'm just about to go and bung together a pot of soup using the veg base I made and froze from the cheap Christmas veggies as it looks as though it will be soup weather for the next few days. I'll probably have some of that with crackers and cheese for lunch. I'm also going to make a batch of Nigella's black pudding meatballs to pop in the freezer for later in the week. I'm out on the 25th so we are having haggis, neeps and tatties for dinner, I've mashed swede and tatties in the freezer so a nice and easy one tonight.0 -
I hope you feel better Farway.
I had toast and Flora for breakfast. I was going to make a roast dinner today, but now I fancy pasta.2025 GOALS
