Cooking for one (Mark Three)

It was dark and raining last night, but it is lovely bright sunshine here today. I had such a long lie-in. I'm only just dressed now. I don't know what to have... I will look through the fridge.1

Wet and windy here so not really feeling the benefit of the milder weather.
I finally got organised and soaked some oatmeal overnight to make a cinnamon & raisin porridge this morning, I really enjoyed it so I must get into the habit of doing that.
Lunch was another egg mayo sandwich and I’ll have the other half of the pizza for dinner tonight.

I sorted the fridge this morning before my evening SM delivery, one of the shelves needed washing I've no idea what spilt on it. I used half a cauliflower, the last leek and potato to make soup.After lunch I went to my sisters' via my elderly friend who had dropped her iPad and pushed it under the bed when trying to use her grabber on it. Unfortunately the bed is heavy and only an inch off the floor
I couldn't get it out without moving the bed which probably not a good idea for my hip! I told her next time leave it on the floor as it's easier for someone to pick up. I was put to work at my sister babysitting her granddaughters' twin babies, it seems twin babies are hard work when you are 3 😁 she's very cute and has a baby carrier to wear one just like mummy does with her baby brother. I did get payment with a bowl of apple and blackberry crumble 😋 my sister makes the best crumble.
lunch was a repeat of yesterday ham and Brie roll but I did find a new pot of English mustard. I roasted a chicken thighs in the AF and had a mini roast dinner this evening. I cooked a couple of portions of a bolognese sauce whilst in the kitchen so the next couple of days lunch and dinner sorted.Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anais Nin1 -

Good morning everyone,
Back to cold, dry and sunny after a very wet day yesterday, It's supposed to drop well below freezing tonight.
I've physio at lunch time and them Tesco are coming this afternoon but apart from routine chores that's the extent of my plans for today.
HM soup for lunch and Denver-style omelette with salad and AF chips for dinner.0 -
