Cooking for one (Mark Three)

Good morning everyone,

Another cold day with fierce showers. DS2, my sis and I plus pooches are off to see DS1's this afternoon for a quiet get together for DS2's birthday. I think we are going to opt for Japanese takeaway from a place near them which is really decent. The plan is to eat early so we can leave before they try to settle DGD. Hard to believe she is 5 weeks old today! I've a couple of chores to do and then I'll have a light fridge gravel brunch. Thoroughly enjoyed the HB's lamb saag, I made the full recipe so plenty LO to freeze for future meals.

A nice sunny morning here too but has started to cloud over a bit, not sure if there is rain on the way but I brought my washing in just in case.

I have some pan fried halloumi leftover from last night so I’ll have it in a salad for lunch with a caper and lemon dressing.

I made a bacon, leek and sweetcorn quiche this morning which I’ll have later as I’ll be watching the rugby this afternoon, I’m not clear on all the rules but have been really enjoying the matches lately.

Another double yolk egg for the quiche, that’s 4 out of 6 now 😁

Beautiful sunny day here. Helped motivate me to some decluttering and domestics.

LO pizza, salad and coleslaw for lunch. Pasta with pesto, tuna and green veg tonight.

we had frost as well this morning although the sun has cleared it when I went out at 9am it's been a sunny day although it's gotten chilly tonight.

My sister and I went on a course today to learn about natural dyes. It's our Christmas present to each other, we pick a half or full day course to do . Very interesting although I'm not sure if I will ever do it now I'm home.

Their courses uses a building at a garden centre about 20/25 minutes from home so lunch was a delicious cheese scone in their cafe.

LO pasta and bolognese sauce for dinner.

I popped to Waitrose before dinner at 6pm for milk and picked up a half price YS chicken which will feed me loads of meals next week
