Two marrows found going wrong - so a marrow fest will be called for!  Today it is marrow korma and rice to warm the cockles on a beautiful and decidedly 'brisk' day!  might find some beetroot curry in the freezer for contrast ...

As we've both had stomach upsets this week and today is the first day we both feel we can tackle something 'substantial' we have plumped for shepherds pie.

More of the marrow fest tonight - stuffed with turkey mince mixed with herbs and garlic, on a bed of buttered potatoes and topped with crunchy cheese.

Potato and squash curry with pilaf rice yesterday.  All veg from the shed  :D

I am working later, but have got chicken thighs out of the freezer to defrost.  I'm planning a mini roast for lunch  :)

Today is already in "not-quite-as-planned- >:(-" mode, so I have dived into the freezer for prepared leeks and a pack of cold meat.  Hopefully I will be able to make a cheese sauce to go with the leeks and steam some potatoes and cabbage ....   :unsure: :unsure:   Cant even default to the chippy, it doesnt open on Sunday.

An other 'make space in the freezer' meal - cottage pie with carrots and green beans.

Roast chicken for us with roast potatoes and parsnips, swede, carrots and last years green beans.  Slowly  making a hole in the big freezer ready for all the treats we looked at in Tesco this afternoon when we went to pick up a few essentials (washing  powder, coffee etc).

Tonight’s dinner ended up as not quite planned here, a bowl 🍲 f soup tha5 I should have had for lunch was had for dinner as I’ve been at the hospital since 12 with DIL who was delirious following throwing up all night, our son stayed with our granddaughter as she’d had it Friday night & he also had it Saturday night so wasn’t in a fit state to take her, all home now & hubby has it, so no roast lamb as planned, plus I’ve to make up the bed in th3 spare room!

Oh dear Snowdrops - that does sound pretty grim  :(  Hope your family are all well soon.

Thanks news, all feeling a bit better bar hubby who is a wuss, I’m a bit burp & cancelled my hair appointment not wanting to inflict it on any one else. So I think it’s soup again for tea & maybe we’ll feel like the roast lamb tomorrow (hubby had cooked it)

That doesn't sound good at all - hope that another day and you will all wobble back onto your feet.  Wise to give up on the hairdresser.  You don't want to pass it on.

Last night more or less worked out except the leeks ... so  tonight is a pie out of the freezer, with the leeks we didnt eat and some beans.  And spoon standing of course.
