Funnily enough, I was just thinking about you earlier, Mab. I was glad to read such good news that they were able to help you. Keep well.

Chookie, I immediately thought of quince paste when I read your oops. Great save.

I know this has got nothing to do with last night's dinner - but your motor home looks nothing short of fantastic, Cookie. Well worth the wait.
Our dinner was boring pasta with passata out of a jar!!

What an exciting and busy time you have all had the past couple of days.
DH and I have just come back from 1 week in Italy ... well, 4 days in Italy, the rest of the time was spent travelling there and back. Had a wonderful time in Cremona, such a beautiful wee town - DH had meetings and we also took in a trade fair there. Spent one night in Milan - after the peace and quiet of Cremona Milan was over-powering - too many people and too many vehicles (in Cremona we could simply walk down the middle of the road as there was very little traffic). Had a fantastic apartment there and found a little family owned bakery up the road where we went each day for our foccaia breakfast. All really nice people. Now it is back to reality.

Mab, thank goodness you now have some more positive information, that must be a huge relief. Good luck with your on-going treatment.

Thanks for the silken tofu suggestion, Chookie. Funnily enough the version I made at the weekend used silken tofu for the first time.

Greek day for me - Greek pasta salad, full of good fresh veges and a "Giant" beans recipe. Also experimented with a new vegan macaroni and cheese recipe, but still can't get to the texture or anywhere near the taste of real cheese sauce. I have been close a few times, but still not there yet. The search goes on.

Still cold in this area today - feels more like mid winter than spring - although we didn't have the weather you got yesterday, Chookie, the ground here is white just now, so I doubt it will get too much warmer as the day goes on.
I am busy doing my usual weekend cooking to keep us going with dinners all week as well as giving the house a clean out as we are off to Italy for a week next Monday and we have people staying here in Guildford for the week whilst we are away.

You have a busy couple of days in front of you, Chookie. Enjoy it all.
So sorry to read that Masons is closing. We will have to make a point of getting over there before Xmas. I believe there is another excellent restaurant in Bendigo - I will have to track it down, but can anything top Masons???

Fantastic news, Cookie. I bet you are desperate to get your hands on your new 'home' and are looking forward to many holidays and happy hours spent in it.
I hadn't heard that Bank West was closing; banks are no longer there for their customers so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised - is that cynical of me?

I also noticed on the Seniors Week programme there was a presentation by Norman Swan - I must look into that one, I am sure it will be interesting.

I went out to do a bit of shopping today and picked up a brochure on the Seniors Festival which is held every year. I only had time to flip through it quickly and one particular event caught my eye ... a visit to a cemetery
