Was too late to make pizza when I got home, not got and bread for toast, so I've had a cup of tea and a few rollies... I did have some chips earlier, but I'm still a bit hungry :hmm:
 
I'm not surprised!

I made a cabbage pilaf, it wasn't very exciting but it was tasty. Then I had some honeycomb and caramel ice cream, as recommended by madz. I am developing an ice cream habit (and a big food baby) :(

It is lush ice cream... they do mint choc chip too :oops:

I really want toast :(
 
Cereal, Biddly! Crackers? Biscuits? Noodles! Tin of sardines!


Son had dhal with garden peas and toasted pitta, daughter had beans on toast and I had a baked sweet potato with goats cheese and some dressed tomatoes and garden lettuce.

Then daughter had lemon sorbet, I had a cream doughnut and son had nothing :cool: cos he was too busy avoiding me after I had a few words cos all in one afternoon he's used the last of the new batteries (just bought the batteries three days ago and he's used ALL FOUR now on the same thing......instead of just recharging the ones that come with it :mad: ), not just used my Lush soap (strictly against the law), but left it sitting in a cup of water so that prob fifty quids worth (ykwim) has been washed away in one bath :facepalm: picked up the pump from my brand new oil pump spray thing and just decided to take it upstairs to piss about with it in the sink (not knowing wtf it was - but knowing it was NOT HIS - luckily I fucking found it or it would have rendered the whole fucking thing useless :mad: ) and to top it all off, he finished all the chocolate digestives. :mad:

there's a man outside the post office selling duracells, 3 packs for a quid if you want some sheo?

duracell duracell duracell three packs a pound.....he shouts/chants over and over.

we had last nights mix-it-up for tea tonight, with pasta and added sweetcorn. it was lush. and i didn't have a row with anyone :cool:
 
1. samphire fritter served with landcress and lemon thyme dressing


2. summer warm salad v/g/n

crispy cornish new potatoes, pak choi, cashew nuts, legumes and asparagus. With fresh gooseberry dressing and thai basil. optional halloumi – (with the optional halloumi please)


3. sumptuous dairy free knickerbocker glory v/g/n

with fresh raspberry jelly, honeycomb, optional meringue, with fresh strawberry and apricot finished with mint and elderflower sorbet.

Plus two large glasses of Fairtrade Organic Chilean Merlot.

Not sure if that lot was worth 30 quid ....

(It was an office "do", and it was only a half hour walk)

It's Italian for 'hunter's style'. Basically, it's chicken parts (or bunny parts in our case) oven-cooked in a cheap red plonk/tomato-based sauce with herbs, onion and mushrooms.

and whytf would you put broccoli in bread :confused:

Never have (but I'm not dead yet). :)

ETA-- this afternoon we had: broiled whitefish fillets with chervil compound butter; boiled, parsley-ed new red potatoes in their skins; steamed asparagus, green salad. Cherry strudel for dessert.

Woah that ain't enough missis! Plus all that vinegar/pickling juice in your tum with nothing else might give you some acid burps :D

I didn't have much during the day (too busy n too hot) but had ham salad tonight. Lettuce, cucumber, cherry toms, romano pepper, the rest of the tabbouleh and some nice ham. There was far too much to eat at once so I had what was left at 9ish while watching NCIS.
 
Farmfoods fish and chips but the real deal next week when I go deep sea fishing woop!

Barby out, a good dose of the sea and the chance for everyone to taste some fish caught 4 hours ago... is good :)

I'd pay £30 for that - it sounds lush (and I'm a meat-eater!).

Tonight's tea will be whatever M&S have got for their 'meals for a tenner' deal :cool:
 
i don't really know. i have friends coming over and i was gonna have a bbq but i kicked the person who makes the bbqs out. as such, i'll do something eatable al fresco. something vegetarian grrrr :mad: ;)
 
Oooh Boatie - I made the muffins yesterday and...they are NICE! :eek:
And indeed you can't taste the courgette at all!

Fructose burns more easily than normal sugar is the only thing....so worth checking two thirds into the cooking time and covering with foil if neccessary, but I've just chipped the burnt edges of the few that went too far. :D

Used all my biggest courgettes up, too. :cool:


However..... :rolleyes: ...still got loads of pak choi and spinach that needs using asap....and peas and now french beans too! :eek:
So going to do a stir fry with all of that and the last of the chicken stock and a pork fillet baked in foil with a kind of spicy teriyaki marinade.
Rice or noodles to go with it, depending on what the kids want.

Lemon sorbet for pudding.
 
Roast chicken legs, roast sweet potatoes in thyme with side salad last night. Rather good.

Herself is at bloody Marxism for the foreseeable so it's lonely dins for me again, harumph. I have two veg sausages and some sweaty old mushrooms in. Might have a fried egg and beans with it, depends how knackered I am when I get in.

*curses lack of imagination*

:cool:

I will be having a starter of a bottle of chilled chardonnay/pinot grigio cross, then a main meal of defrosted ratatouille, which will be accompanied by a fuckton of couscous, and possibly some CHIPS - depends on how hungy I am after wine and spliffs a-plenty :cool:
