Cooking for one (Mark Three)

Good morning everyone,

Lol Farway, yep the frozen tuna steaks are great value so no doubt will leap up now we are enjoying it!

Grey, wet and feeling more like late rather than early Autumn. It's heading to the September/race weekend here and often the weather is quite pleasant but not this year.

Very pleased with the results from deep cleaning and then polishing my stove. A mucky job but really quite satisfying. It's beginning to show it's age (almost 8 years) but hopefully it will be good for a few more years yet.

Last of the current batch of soup for lunch, depending on how the day goes I might make another potful of veg based soup later. A favourite for dinner which I've not made for ages - Jamie Oliver’s Crispy Golden Chicken Is Perfect for a Weeknight Dinner – Tamron Hall Show . We'll have it sweet potatoes and either salad or steamed veg.

Sunshine and showers here, and definitely feeling a bit cooler this evening. Another productive work day.

Scrambled eggs and mushrooms on toasted bagel for lunch. Creamy sausage and leek pasta with purple sprouting broccoli and sugar snap peas tonight.

I had watermelon for breakfast, then a veggie burger and wedges for lunch.

My dinner was sourdough pizza.🥰

Brambling

i meant to say yesterday Farway if your council gave you a free roll of bags with your food bin and they are like ours they fell apart after 3 or 4 days they compost too quickly! I found M&S ones do the same so have resorted to Amazon which seem to last the week if needed.

Decorating is nearly finished, dining room is finished apart from the curtain rail being rehung and the lounge has one wall to finish off and the curtain rail. I'm still allergic to my house! After a rainy start I did some gardening this afternoon to fill the wheelie bin and the garden drew blood 🫣 my fault I know to wear long sleeves and gloves. Between brambles, plant allergies and insect bites (again) my hands and arms look like I've been attacked by the cat. Then to finish off I broke a nail really short on the wheelie bin handle 🙄

Egg and cress sandwich for lunch.

Prawn and mushroom risotto for dinner with broccoli

I went out for lunch yesterday which was a nice treat, then it was using leftovers of pizza and falafel later in the day so not much cfo going on.

Today it is feeling much cooler but I’m resisting the urge to put any kind of heating on, I’ll just add another layer of clothing and have soup for lunch.

Dinner is undecided as yet but probably something from the freezer.
