    Oh I could just eat some lemon drizzle cake - and there's some lemon left over from pancakes! Thanks for the idea. :) I wish I had some frozen blueberries (I ate them all in my overnight oats) because they are so nice with lemon.

    The Covid's not too bad thanks - just like a stuffed-up cold this time.

    Out: fish fingers, soup, lentil & mushroom stew. Also HM yogurt seems fine at over a week old but I will probably make a new batch soon.

    This was an unexpected surprise when i was looking for ideas to use for my veg and fruit box delivery. It has lasted in the fridge for 4 days. I have heated the last bit in a frying pan, added to a white fish fillet topped with poached egg.

    I confess I had to do a bit of clearing in the fridge and found some custard and some lemon wedges that had gone off, so they had to go. Then I picked out the container of what I though were baked beans put in by my husband the other day, only to find it was a casserole and no longer edible, so that's gone too. Blaming that one on us talking at cross purposes, but feeling bad about the others.

    However I've used up a few bits and pieces: chorizo, lentils, smoked paprika, parsnip soup, mushroom and lentil casserole. I also have a portion of soup to go in (and a tiny bit of space, but I won't say that very loudly because it won't last long).
