Sunny Saturday, for a change. Done a washing machine load and Vin has pegged it out, and it's blowing merrily in the breeze. You just have to keep one eye out for the weather in case it starts raining!. Floods seem to be going down in most areas, but apparently there is still rain warning, so may be in danger of more. Generally the talk is of about 5Billion for repairs...but you can't put a price on peoples memories and ruined belongings, especially sentimental ones.
Last night's tea was a resounding success, the Mexican was very tasty indeed, and quite low calorie too. I reckon it was about 400 calories for the meal which isn't bad going. Not having cheese helps a lot though.
Tonight we are having :
The usual Chinese...
2 Spring Rolls, frozen ones,
Egg fried rice 4oz rice 2 eggs, some peas and spring onions.
Honey and Coriander sauce, one packet...we used to have 2!
1 Packet of mushroom stir-fried vegetables, using Fry Light.
Mostly we have cut down a lot on the oil here, and only use 1tsp for the fried rice and fry Light for the veggies. If you cook gently you can get away with much less oil. Also having a good non-stick pan helps a lot too.
Vin is finishing the middle room paint, and giving it 2 coats where it has been wallpapered. The difference is truly amazing it is so much lighter and when you come in now it doesn't look drab any more. he's done a super job, I'm really proud of him.
