I love the sound of the baked apples Chookie. We haven’t had them for ages. We had RTE tacos but in a wrap.

We are out of biscuits. I was planning on spending a lovely time looking through recipes. However DH has just told me he wants peanut biscuits.  So fun and exploration is gone. I might put malt in them instead of golden syrup.

Is that a bit radical Cookie???  I agree that fossicking around to decide what you are going to cook / bake next is half the fun of the experience.

Very true. They are nearly all gone. We’ve had a couple of lots of visitors. 😀😀😀😀😀

Marina that’s not good. I hope the cortisone injections work for you.
How is your lip? It sounds painful.

Our new budgie is making life very different. He doesn’t like to stay in his cage as all others have done. Not for any time at all. He likes to sit on your shoulder and chat or run around the floor and get into everything. I’m terrified if I vacuum he will get sucked up and if I iron he will get burnt.
It was good at first but now it’s annoying. Lucky he is cute.

That sounds unusual Chookie. I often pop a couple of anchovies into my spag bog.
Last night we had meatballs on a bed of spinach and Risoni with a tomato sauce over the top. Topped with cheese of course. I’d been planning it for several nights but was always missing an ingredient. 😀

Not a lot done today. I guided DH down to an unknown suburb. He had arranged to pick some things up from  NFG committee member’s widow. I waited in the car. So very sad as her house is rented and the owner’s have asked her to leave. Within their rights of course but hard for her. They had been there 12 years.

We were totally out of bread. DH found a Hot Cross Bun he had for his toast this morning. I’ve just taken a Classic loaf out of the oven and have an Everyday Sourdough Loaf finishing rising. (Cookidoo) I have the SC going to make RTE Pastrami so the bread has been lovely and warm beside it.

It’s actually below 20° here today so we are having chicken soup with home made noodles and garlic Foccacia from the freezer. 

I feel for Nagi. I think she is doing the right thing. She said she has nothing to lose.

I did the shopping this morning. We went to Costco yesterday and I stocked up on things that we used.
