    I found the recipe eventually it was for a WW lentil and okra curry. Thanks anyway.

    I hope I’m not coming down with something. After lunch I started feeling absolutely exhausted and like I’ve got a cold coming. When I went out to get my eyebrows done I picked up a tiger baguette for Mr SA and had a bit of it at lunchtime. I don’t eat much bread normally as it makes me feel a bit off so put it down to that as I was perfectly ok before then. I’ll see how I feel tomorrow, if still not right might have to take a Covid test. Not what I need when I was looking forward to my week off and meeting up with my friends 😩

    Sounds as though you need some rest and to take care of yourself. :) Hopefully by tomorrow you'll be back to your usual good health, but rest usually helps.
    Remember there are other bugs around and, as you mentioned with the bread, plenty of things that can make us feel off colour, it doesn't have to be Covid. However I guess taking a test is always wise these days.
    Feel better soon :)

    Forgot to say I picked and ate my first 2 ripe tomatoes today, plenty more coming 🥳 I’m starting to feel a bit better now, have been drinking lots of water as I was really thirsty. Never eating tiger bread again.

  • I think Tiger bread is horrible, I am aware I am in a minority but always think it smells funny............

    Hope you continue to feel better XX

    Hope you haven't caught a lurgy, there's lots going round at the moment, the girl I worked with on Friday had a stinking cold and DD was also ill with a cold last week, she had to come from work and had yet another covid test but thankfully it was negative, I was looking after a covid positive patient at the weekend but had my ppe on so hopefully will be ok,the poor girl looked terrible and was only 16 😟

    Pleased the covid tests were negative. 
    I’m another who loves the smell and taste of tiger bread and the salt and pepper baguettes from Mr Tesc@. 
    Your hall is sounding very bright and cheerful, bet you can’t wait for the flooring to finish it all off.

    Happy Friday Eve

    I feel a lot better today, must’ve been the tiger bread. The downside of eating healthily 99% of the time is that when I do eat something remotely unhealthy I feel terrible. 

    Have been to Aldi this morning for a few bits of fresh stuff. Took the dog for a run on the park at lunchtime, we were the only ones there which was nice. 

    Making veggie sausages, cauliflower mash and caramelised onion gravy for my dinner tonight. A new recipe I intended to make last week but changed my mind at the last minute. 

    One more working day to go before I break up 🥳
