Mother's day..

What day?? you wouldn't know it in this house!! Jane doesn't do Mother's day, or birthdays or Christmas. God knows why not, we have always enjoyed birthdays etc in this house. Maybe they don't have card shops in Manchester?
Sunday dawns quite nice but cold. VT didn't go out this morning but did a few things outside this morning and came in saying that it was cold, his hands certainly were. We did a bread mix bread for a change today, a Hovis white one, and it does give good results. The only thing that you have to watch is that you get the right consistency of the dough, make sure it isn't too dry or wet. I do it in the machine on the dough cycle, and it is done much quicker than the Sourdough. We then did the roast vegetables, and then the pizza dough, which we have to a fine art now.
The crosswords were fairly easy, I just had to look up some of Sebastian Faulk's novels to finish mine, and the name of the headmaster of Hogwarts for VT's one.
Yesterday..Saturday I forgot to do this but it was a very uneventful day, with not much going on. VT went out in the morning, otherwise we stayed in and read the papers.
We had:
Chinese, Quorn dippers,
Honey and cashew sauce,
Stir fried vegetables, with pepper for VT,
4oz egg fried rice with spring onion and peas.


Sunday..We are having:
Pizza with our home made dough,
Tomato sauce,
Roasted vegetables we have done,
Salad with Ceasar salad bag,
