    I'd bought/frozen some bread rolls, I'd defrosted one about 2 days ago.... so it needed to be eaten. I just toasted it and spread it with jam :)

    I'd defrosted it, thinking I'd serve my stew with toasted bread as a side dish.... but then dumplings ended up being cooked every time. I've had nine dumplings now since Friday :)

    Stew's all eaten...

    Later it's probably sausage rolls, last two in the pack.
  • I had a lie-in listening to a podcast in bed and then putting on a face mask and then a facial serum.

    I was doing it as I'm still feeling under the weather but I might start doing that every Sunday morning from now on. Very relaxing.:)

    I am doing some laundry now and about to watch the political shows from this morning. I might switch them off if they are just banging on about Brexit!:rotfl:

    I had the new Pizza Express vegan pizza that I got from Ocado for brunch. Yummy! That is all I have had so far.

    I have some leftover soup for later. I'm sure I will have more than that.:D

    HM soup and crusty bread is one of favourite meals in cold weather. :D

    Yes, I agree. It was just what I wanted when I got in yesterday as it has become much colder!:A

    Egg sarnie lunch scoffed while listening to local radio garden phone in, it wandered off into cooking snails from your garden:eek: I'll give the part of garden cropping a miss

    Grape planted and wall baskets taken down

    Cup of coffee + two choc digestives:o

    Bubble & squeak for dinner still on target

    Good evening everyone,
    Can't say either Peston or Jarvis Cocker do it for me but each to their own;):).
    My sister popped round for a cuppa and a catch up this afternoon but apart from that it's been a quiet one!
    Did manage to bang my arm where I got my jab which was painful to say the least and it's still throbbing some hours later, my sister arrived just as I had bashed it so came in to be greeted by me turning the air blue:o.
    Nothing to prep for dinner apart from some veg, the temperature is falling rapidly after getting no higher than 8C today so I'm glad I've made stew. I might just need to add a dumpling even though I've got mash as PN has mentioned them again and given me a notion:)
