I have to confess that after getting back in late last night, I ate a whole can - straight out of the can with a spoon    Terrible I know, but they were good 

HM pasta tonight with HM tomato sauce to atone for my bad dining yesterday

Sometimes it's the best, the only way, to eat them

More marrow fest tonight. 

I knew another was going so thought, I'll just get that down before I deal with this washing .... oh, that other one looks like it is hanging over the edge of the shelf not sitting on it.     Perhaps that one then?  Ugh  ..... splat!!  Floor washing time!     Fortunately missing the clean washing. 

Some pork mince, combined with sage, onion, apple, garlic etc as the stuffing and buttered potatoes cooked underneath.

I had a gammon rasher with bubble and squeak and tomatoes. That used up some potatoes that had fork holes in them and some sorry cabbage. Waste not want not

H ha - I thought that was a bit 'posh' for mid-week!

I had Moussaka with French beans and carrots.

[madcat]

Sounds lovely!  Mmm..

I had a pork loin chop with beetroot gratin, roast spuds and cabbage.  All hm grown veg .... and bargain cream in the gratin.   (That's my excuse for something so calorific!)

Tonight I have to get my pastry fingers back in shape for the mince-pie-athon that is looming.  So I'm warming up with a turkey and veg pie (turkey wings in the slo cooker - so there will be stock as well) with cabbage.

Making a pan of leek and potato soup and crusty bread to go with it

Chippy tea tonight as will be back late .... assuming that the snow stops in time to go off this afternoon!

Roast lamb from the freezer ( finally we get to try some,it’s from the half lamb I bought the other week,then hubby had the lurgy so I froze it) with mash, carrot & swede mash &  some of the cabbage I succumbed too when shopping on Wednesday

[New shoot]

Lamb shanks in gravy - out of a packet, but I need freezer space and they are about the biggest box.  Mash from plot spuds, plus homegrown squash and greens to go with
