Chop Chop!

Started a bit late this morning, we weren't in a hurry to get up, being so comfy and warm. It's great this retirement lark, you can do what you want.
Then decided to go over to Ormskirk where it was really quite cold actually. It is fairly high up and blowy. Didn't buy much though, just had a good look round. Saw a group of schoolkids doing what looked like a geography survey with their two teachers. Can't say I was envious. we were sitting in the cafe having a lovely cup of coffee at the time..which would you prefer eh!
After lunch we started tonight's tea,
Tonight we are having:
Oven Roasted HotPot..courtesy of Celia brookes Brown, but messed about a bit.
We will have a good bowl of that with a dollop of our home made greek yoghurt on top..
In it there is...
Tomato Carrot juice or V8 which I used
Italian seasoning Nutmeg and seasoning
Sweet Potato Lemon Rind grated
Carrots Red pepper Celery
Parsnip (You can actually put whatever veg you like in it)
Mushrooms A can of Chick Peas
It is a gorgeous recipe for a cold night, and once the chopping is done, which is very theraputic by the way it is put in the oven and left to fend for itself. this is a requirement of a good hotpot, and this is a good one.
