I think ham and fig jam would be rather nice together. I love cheese and jam together and many years ago I was introduced to rich fruit cake with a slab of cheddar on it, very tasty.

All the best Marina. If your anaesthetist has a sense of humour he will be wonderful. It will be all over by now, so I hope things are going well.

I did my grocery shopping this morning. I was rather shocked to find red capsicums at $16.90 /kg (I didn’t buy any) and even carrots at $2.40/kg. They were $1 last week and before. I guess a lot of fresh food depends on the weather.

That must be very disappointing Judy.

We’re having Chilli Con carne.

Rain needed here too. Probably nothing for tea seeing as I’m going out for lunch, unless there’s nothing on the menu I can eat which happens a lot.

Today I’ve had my hair cut, I’m going out to lunch with my Melbourne family then later this afternoon a dentist appt to replace a filling that mysteriously disappeared earlier this week.

Good report cookie, every cook tastes the food they’re making so you must do more than the average person to put 3 kgs on. Maybe only use a teaspoon now to see if that stops the weight gain.

Good luck with the op Marina, that’s amazing that both gentlemen are customers of yours. Are you happy with your blinds Chookie? The workers would have enjoyed the meal you have them.

K Atie I wouldn't fancy getting out of bed during the night but a farmer’s wife knows what she’s getting herself into I guess.

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.

Best of luck Marina you will be fine . Doing all the exercises when ready and maybe even hydrotherapy might help . Enjoy the rest time too.
Yesterday I had yoga class . DH can home late and I had snuck into bed early ( night before I was awake in the middle of night for a few hours!) had to layer clothes on and drive him out to get Ute for our worker who was seeding! It was very fresh , cold.
