DD suggested she come & do pasta tonight, so she is in the garage!🤔 Whilst dad is making basil pasta to go with the bolognaise DD made. Hubby has also made garlic baguettes that DD has just tasted & told him to get a stall on the farmers market, so he's walking round with askip in his step. I'm just waiting, my time will come no doubt when it's clear up time!😏 & boy do they make a mess

Busy day here, so chilli from the freezer and some rice for tea 

There were some squashes in the shed that were developing spots on the skins, so I've had an oven full roasting for the freezer.  I might stir some in to bulk out the veg content.

Sticky sweet chilli chicken with rice and peas. Ice cream and raspberries from the freezer after

Coincidentally I took a detour this morning passing the nearest butchers and found them open at 7am  it would have been rude not to stop.   

Not the worlds best to be honest, but I did pick up some tomato sausages (I know, I could make my own but they were only 50p each ... ) added mash, mushrooms and some of the frozen spinach I usually keep for curry time - made a reasonable meal.

In the drizzle this morning, but nice to have some rain at last, picked a half bucket load of Brussels Spouts, a few leeks, parsnips carrots, sage and a colander full of spinach.

Roast pork today, with bacon wrapped sage and onion stuffing balls and HM apple sauce.
Our raspberries from the freezer going in a jelly for afters.

An easy carve duck I unearthed from the freezer.  This was bought for Christmas, then never used    I'm trying to empty the freezer out to defrost it, so time it saw the light of day.

Roasties, squash and cabbage to go with it.  The duck has cherry stuffing, so I might open a jar of one of my jellies and melt a spoonful into the gravy to echo the fruity theme

bought a tray of pheasant legs from the butcher yesterday, so I am going to cook them in a bourguignonne sauce, then when falling off the sinews, strip the meat from the bones (a messy job) and very well flavoured pheasant bourg. with mash and greens tonight.  The bones and bits will join similar from the chicken last night and for tomorrow in a stock ...  Best get on with it then!

Lamb leg steak with broccoli, peas and swede.

Roast chicken & all the trimmings, might find the leftover cheese sauce in the freezer as I've got some cauliflower, or I could save it for with sausages in the week, yes that's what ill do as that will save me getting up & disturbing the cat who has taken to getting up on my lap recently! 😅

I am eating soft food, having bent my front teeth in a running accident     I made a pork casserole, which was way lush, but most of the meat ended up on my husband's plate as I can't eat it yet

Shepherd's pie tomorrow, minus the shepherd probably. Mash, mash and more mash! Getting sick of the sight of scrambled egg and mash! 

I yearn for a piece of hot buttered toast

A meat-free Monday here - vegi sausages, carrot & swede mash, cabbage and spoon-standing.

[New shoot]

Leftover duck reheated in the oven, baked potatoes, roast squash, greens and the last of the sweetcorn from the freezer.  All with gravy and bread as well for those who wanted to wipe every last trace from their plates 

OH was then hopefully looking round for pudding - I swear he has hollow legs

I yearn for a piece of hot buttered toast 

I remember the feeling when I was part way through dental work!  Hope your teeth are starting to feel better.

Last night was chinese pancakes (chicken cooked with star anise and soy, stripped off the bone, shredded spring onion and carrot, hoisin sauce, chinese pancakes) and special stir fried rice (with egg, bacon, onion, carrot and french beans).

Tonight will be the other half of the pheasant stew, with mash and cabbage.  I think.

Sausages & you've guessed cauliflower cheese, mash, peas
