I'm thinking in pictures!!! My mum's pup once ran away with a pair of "smalls". Funniest thing ever...she kept tripping over them and getting all tangled up! Mother was mortified!
Haven't done much today, set tables for tomorrow's Harvest Lunch, roasted a chicken.
Dinner will be in front of Strictly, big prawns were on special offer in the SM so I'm frying them in herbs and garlic and having garden veg such as runner beans and cous cous with chopped courgette, onion and carrot in it.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
We're having pork chops with braised fennel, roasted squash and crispy baby potatoes. The pork chops are from the farm shop and they're ginormous ... more like a rib of beef
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Youngest and myself are having leftover spag bol. I made soup earlier as I'd done stock from our recent roast chicken. Do you 'convert' your carcasses BL? I love home made soup.
Was wondering if you'd been blown away today Ppauper, or has it managed to miss you in the north?
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
The flood warning "maroon" has just gone off in the town. (It's an eerie noise - especially for anyone who lived through the air raid warnings of the last war.) They had a practice run just a few days ago, to make sure all the sluice gates etc were working properly - so hopefully, fingers crossed, nobody in the valley bottom will be flooded this time...
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
I always make stock from chicken carcasses and boiled bacon etc ... but last time I cooked some gammon in the slow cooker the Washer Up In Chief sufferered an episode of super-efficiency and disposed of the cooking liquor ... although he did admit that as he did it he did wonder whether he was doing the right thing ..............
Tomorrow we're cooking pheasant ... for a change I'm using this recipe,

Those "smalls" don't sound very small!

He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy.

Tomorrow we're cooking pheasant ... for a change I'm using this recipe,
http://www.foodnetwork.ca/recipe/roast-pheasant/1199/
but will be using cider and sage rather than the cabernet sauv, vanilla and rosemary I'm using cider and sage.

Watched GW this afternoon. We had to skip past the lithops section as we couldn't keep our eyes off the wig.
