We were told to pick up Pickle (the budgie) at 6 tonight. They were feeding her 2 hourly. She has 2 lots of medicine to take now. One lot is a stronger antibiotic and I’ve forgotten what DD said the other was. She has to go back to the vet next Friday. We are lucky this vet is an Avian vet.
We had a Chicken Pie created in the thermomix. I used the blade cover and put sliced potato and carrot on it. Put sliced onion, mushrooms and broccoli in the basket. Added sliced chicken breast. I poured water with veggie stock in it over the lot and cooked it for 20 minutes on Varoma. I put all the chicken and veggies into a dish and thickened the liquid, to pour over it. I’d made some short pastry and rolled it out for the top and baked it. Very nice.
We had to take budgie back to the vet today. She has had to stay in hospital. Poor thing has a mass in her stomach and another infection. The infection is being treated first. Hopefully we can pick her up late tomorrow afternoon. The house is so very quiet.
DH said thank you all for the kind words. He is off at an urgent committee meeting for Nasho Fair Go. No progress is being made and they are all getting older.
DH and his former student have been working on their Model A speedster. It’s almost done. This photo is of the speedster, the friends Model A called Turtle and one of ours called Old Frank. The first photo is what they started with for the speedster. G
Oh Marina how annoying. I would have been cross too. Judy the budgie is quiet for a bit then and then walks out from wherever she is. She’s on the mend, I think, but still very cuddly. She spent most of yesterday on my shoulder and today DD has the pleasure. She goes back to the vet on Wednesday.
Judy you have prepared a lovely spread. I’ve become lazy and haven’t been making my own sauces. I made some biscuits yesterday that were plain with mixed fruit and almonds in. They are from an old cookbook created in Morawa.
I managed to get the shopping done this morning. Our budgie is certainly feeling better, she is into everything and everywhere. I lost her 3 times this morning. Once she was in DD’s bathroom, another time under the lounge and the third time in the pantry. No more leaving doors open and food uncovered around here.
