Hot & sunny, but missed out on the thunderstorms lashing around. It was 75F in the conservatory this morning, and the sun is nowhere near yet.
I did get to make the marmalade yesterday, using a Ma Made tin and some demerara sugar as well as white. Not tried yet but the Demerara is suppose to give it that bit extra difference. Nine jars total, but not all jam jars are equal these days
Lunch, more something on toast, it was marmite yesterday
Dinner, another one on rinse & repeat. LO Coronation chicken + salad. I'm making a potato salad using the LO spuds from yesterday

What a difference in the weather here today, the temp up in the mid 20’s which will make for a nice change on the bowling green this afternoon.
I went to the butcher shop this morning to get some lamb mince for a moussaka, which is simmering on the stove now, I’ll leave the flavours to develop overnight and pull it all together tomorrow.
The butcher has added to his range of sausages, so I picked up a couple of Portuguese linguica which I’ll have tonight with some jersey royals and AF asparagus, hopefully they will be as flavourful as the “no show” tesco ones.
Leftover souvlaki and salad for lunch, all very european here 😎

Good morning everyone,
Overcast but dry and 21C here, that'll do me nicely. 😎
I've a bit more admin to do then the garden beckons, later on I hope to get the remaining toms into their greenhouse pots. Load 2 of laundry is almost completely I'm hoping all will be dry come tonight.
Chicken salad again for lunch. Hairy Biker's Cod in Parma ham with sweet potato wedges and crispy Cavolo Nero for dinner. https://hairybikersrecipes.co.uk/hairy-bikers-cod-wrapped-in-parma-ham-recipe/

There was a massive thunderstorm here this morning. It went on for a long time, apparently. I heard it but fell back to sleep as I have been out a lot lately and I was tired. I slept in until almost 1 this afternoon!
I just had some yoghurt and fresh fruit and lots of water.
