    At least it's not raining, just dull, grey & misty

    Lunch, grilled cheese on stale bread toast
    Dinner, TBD. If I can't think of anything have a frozen pizza that will do

    Good morning everyone, 
    Dry, bright and a tad milder here today. 
    Just enjoying a peaceful cuppa before I finish lunch prep. There's chicken & rice soup, cold chicken and ham, various cheeses and salad. DS1 & DIL are picking up some nice bread from there local bakery so no one should be hungry. Dinner is tbc possibly more of the soup.

    I have a massage to go to. I had a toasted pitta with Flora, a hot chocolate, a lemon dessert pot and I’m having a cup of green tea. Bit of a weird combination.

    I have run out of bananas so I can’t have a smoothie.

    I have a class this evening. I might have a frozen pizza with added toppings beforehand.

    Not very nice here either, wet and grey but thankfully still feeling a bit milder.

    Just a couple of household chores on my “to do” list today. Lunch is similar to Farway but I used one of the YS english muffins I bought yesterday and threw some chopped up pickled jalapenos into the cheese.

    Dinner is roast pork, some of the braised red cabbage I have stashed in the freezer and some cavolo nero.
