Don't wear the green off them Wintersong. Have you ordered seeds yet.? I think it was KEF's Mum who transposed stir crazy into stir fry. Very apt with talk of being hungry in this cold weather and then Lizzie goes to the Wok Place.
Gg I'm glad you've seen some snow - we've seen enough. Sunglasses suit you Archie
Poddington it's a shame about the children being ill but it's a good chance for a catch up.
Lily I've been having a very quick wander round the garden too and have found three clumps of snowdrops. Hope you've got your car back DD. Note to self 'tidy cupboards and drawers'
Verdun, well done for going through the mill. What a lovely story you uncovered though
Havent managed to get outside yet either, did an online shop ...yawn! Then went upstairs for something and ended up putting the laundry away then stripping and remaking the bed, might just have a little tidy outside
iIve ordered some gladioli for cutting and some Eucomis sparkling burgundy for pots.
Also, does anyone know the best way to germinate banana seeds.? I ordered three types in a fit of exoticism.
OH is on a diet, and I'm sort of going along with it. Currently he is having lots of veg and protein, and no wheat based products, so no pizza, pasta, cakes or biscuits.or beer.
Two days in and he's complaining he's hungry. There is plenty of squash soup in the fridge. He's got to do it. His annual medical says his blood sugar is slightly raised, so weight loss is the first move. He doesn't want more tablets.
My car is in for service, MOT and new spring. I'm expecting a big bill.
There are diets and there are diets. Through many years of ups and downs I find that if you deny yourself of most of the things you enjoy you can't stick to it. I have just bought (urrghhh for many) the Hairy Bikers Dieters cookbook and am really enjoying the meals, which are nutritionally sound, and the rest of the family enjoy them too. Turkey burgers here tonight
Winter munchies - oh yes! Only ever eat doughnuts when it's cold. (I mean I never eat them in the summer, not that my winter diet consists of nothing else... )
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
Doughnuts we had them at the potato day we take some with us as a tradition as they had them the first year we went but not the second year so since then we take them
Fidget, i grew some banana years back (musa banjoo i think) so they must be easy, would have just bunged em in and kept em warm , hope your car isnt too bad and OH can stick to his diet
Lesley, i agree with you on diets, but if i hadnt stopped/ cut back on dairy they would have had to smash down the wall to get me out by now...no self control . Hope your book is good, i like the hairy bikers
Agree with the doughnuts Verdun glad your plants have come
Finally got in the garden, found my compost bin has rotted (was an old laundry hamper!) So dug a new pit, put some chicken wire and canes up, and had a bit of a tidy, george came and "helped" me dig, then lay in the hole...some things never change!
Want doughnuts now!!! Can i have doughnuts- i mean have they got dairy in?
