Butternut squash stuffed with mince done who-knows-how yet. Pudding will be some heated up slightly heavy kiwi and apple muffins (I'm going to try a different recipe next time) and custard.May have to go out and get a bottle of wine, now you mention it bjay.
Trying to cook banana cake. New recipe and taking far longer than directions said. Did throw in a handful of blueberries that were out ofdate as well. So we may have pudding.
the trouble with sponges that have a soggy ingredient like banana is that if you do the recommended 'stick a skewer in to see if it's cooked' it always comes out soggy! I'm sure it will be lovely anyway, bjay.
As we both spent all day in the garden, it was off to the chippy for a fish supper. Very good it was too!
Chippies up here usually sell only "fish" which is haddock; none that we've ever been to has offered a choice of fish - good job then that I now prefer haddock. As a child I always liked "rock salmon" whatever that is called now . They seem to make up for the lack of fish choice with a big choice of "puddings" (savoury things in skins - not sweet). There's red, white, black & haggis, maybe more in some places.
Tomorrow it'll be cajun turkey steaks, from our local butcher. (Provided they haven't gone off in the cool box overnight - fridge has packed up! ).
Chilli with garlic bread here, too, Zoomer - also from the freezer having used up some of the tomato glut, the peppers in GH and some of my eye-waterlingly hot chillies! A real comfort meal on a cold evening.
Shrinking Violet, Garlic, toms, onions and chillies were home grown and herbs. Peppers were, sadly, disappointing this year . I've just ordered some different varieties of peppers for next year, hopefully they'll prefer the British climate.

Chilli and rice with garlic bread. I made a huge pan of chilli a few weeks ago trying to think of ways to use up a glut of toms and froze it.
