Except planning for big family lunch on Sunday. Dug out a recipe I'd saved from Good Housekeeping in 1990 (!) which I've always wanted to do. It's basically a stuffed boned leg of lamb,a la provencal, but the puddings...lemon syrup tart with a rhubarb sauce. Mmmmm. Needs a kilo of rhubarb though, will have to supplement the pickings from the rhubarb I'm forcing in an old compost bin. Fortunately leg of lamb half price atm in the local co-op, so will have to do a bit of home butchery.
Phone call Jo??-is this the flippin boiler again-the one that your said others were sorting
Yep, boils (sorry) down to moi as per usual! B thing been as good as gold this evening after the lunchtime concert!!
Becks you did well not to spend any more!
Meal going to be easy this evening. I made far too much cauli/mac cheese t'other night- well the cauli was deceptively big - so it's that with a veggie rissole each. No doubt daughter will pour us both a glass of vino & I'll end up asleep on sofa.
Have taken some more painkillers, along with a chewy bar, so am comfy again. Somehow, along with the weather forecast, I shant be doing any gardening up at daughter's this w/end, unless sciatica settles. Please remind me of that when I stagger around next Monday!
I did say I'd clean the windows there after they finish the painting- hmm. Needed something to do whilst waiting on a delivery for her next week. Again it'll depend on muscles etc.
Oh Jo - you really must take it easy - backs are such a pain
Sorry Flo I shuld have thought
Now head is clear have contacted a man about replacing the back door. It's taken to opening by itself. he is coming Friday. OH thinks a repair is not really viable.
Hello all. Back from the shopping trip. Aldi cold frame bought, seed and cutting compost, flowers in packs, shallots. Bought magazine. Told OH needed bed 2.5m by 2.5m digging out of lawn. Sighed and now gone to pub! Daughter gone to party (again) Son on way back from indoor skateboarding at somewhere called the works. Just having a glass of vino and a bit of peace and quiet.
