One is on the next door's shed roof, the other is on my knee purring away and watching the screen as I type, and the one that VT is looking after is goodness knows where at the front of the house. he was out last night looking for it,and we gave up and went to bed. However, as I was in the bathroom, he went downstairs and had another go, he came back in a few minutes to say it was on the step so he picked it up and took it in next door. He is such a softie that man of mine.
Quiet today, not doing much, VT has been in the gaarden doing some of the pots etc., clearing them out, replanting some and generally tidying up. Good for him.
Last night we had a funny tea. I had planned to do either lamb steaks (meatless ones) or peppered steaks, gravy with mushrooms, squashed new potatoes, and carrot and swede mashed. Well all that was ok, till I came to drain 6the carrot and swede. Very strange mixture, very discoloured, and a black rim round the pan. really very unappetising so we ditched those, Tesco on offer 50p., and got some fresh peas out of the freezer instead. At least they were nice.
VT had a funny moment on sunday when we did the bread,he put the bread mix in, and got it going. Then I opened the lid, and looked in to see a silver packet rolling around. Yes, it was the yeast packet.He had neglected to take it out of the packet first!!!
Anyway it all turned out good, and it is a beautiful loaf of Soy and Linseed. Great breadmixes those Laucke ones. All the way from Oz.
Tonight we are having:
green Thai Curry, using Quorn pieces and mushrooms.
1/2 a packet of basmati rice,
Tender stem broccoli or carrots..not sure which.
