I thought I’d save money by missing a week. This didn’t happen as my next visit to the Supermarket was nearly double.
My printer is playing up. The nice ladies at the PO kindly photocopied some documents off my iPad for me.
With my blog not allowing me to post more recipes, I’ve been putting then on Snap Recipes. Now I’m worried that I’ll lose them . I’m thinking of going to Office Works and printing them off. Any ideas?

I was give a large bag of the most beautiful large apples. A friend identified them as Bramleys.  They are a bit tart like Granny Smith’s. I’ve been bottling them in the microwave and eating them. I’ve also used them in apple cakes.
I’ve a little fillet steak left over. Will make a stir fry for lunch.

Cookie, I also lost snap on iPad, but it was still on my phone. I think that when you do an upgrade, that’s when it happens.
I also can’t post photos again. Very frustrating.
Marina, best wishes for op. Sounds like you are in good hands. When you have time, let us know how you are going.
Builder were here from 8 to 6 to install the blinds for my garden room. I fed them as it was bitterly cold with a strong south wind. Scones, jam and cream for morning tea. Cottage pie for lunch with Rum and Raisin Banana cake to follow. I sent the boss home with a chicken pie as he was running late.

Lovely to get some rain. We also could do with a bit.
Soup for dinner. I used the roast bone from the lamb leg. Added veggies and soup mix.

Cookie, I just saw a recipe for a sandwich with ham and fig jam. Interesting.
Made some lovely rolls . Base Laucke grain mix and substituted 100 g of cooked grain. I’m using my drying cabinet to prove the bread. Excellent for our cold climate.
Also made more jam. Cooked apple cores and peel, used this as a base for Rhubarb and mixed berries.

You’re a great Grandma Chookie.
It’s so nice to have young people around. I had 4 for dinner last night. It’s nice to see the boys treating the girls with respect. We have great discussions about what they are doing with their work and study. They clean up after the meal and stack the dish washer.

Very well done Cookie.
Today the blind company are coming to install the blinds for my garden room. I probably won’t get the full benefit of these until next Summer..

My knee scooter arrived yesterday - what fun - I could get into a lot of trouble with this zipping around the place.  DH is concerned because I am so accident prone!!
Marina, I’d love to see this.
Finishing book for Book Club. I share with another member. Preparing Dinner for visitors.
