Cold. Dry. Windy. That's all there is to say about today.
The hospital trip went very well, positive news for W, it could be just a few weeks before he loses the cast.
I am keeping my metaphorical finger crossed. I can not cross the real ones as I need them for my knitting.
I had planned on getting some sewing done this afternoon but it was gone 3:00 before we got home. I had time to have a cuppa and a cwtch with Ben before getting ready for the afternoon walk. It was not a long one, just as we left there was a flurry of icy rain that was cheek stinging.
Dinner tonight is a pizza between us with corn on the cob and some of the coleslaw. It feels more like stew and dumpling weather but never mind.
There will be pudding, with custard.
I am going to find something from the freezer for dinner tomorrow, my shopping list is a very short one this week, milk, eggs, fruit and veg. Lovely
I stopped on the way home so W could go to Home Bargains and found some bits and bobs to "bling" up Francesca,s room for her next 2 visits. I also stocked up with lentils and pearl barley as they are the lowest price that I have seen.
I could have kicked my self when I unpacked it all, I was next door to Poundstretcher and their chopped tomatoes are 25P per tin and very good quality. I only have 2 tins in the pantry so must restock next time I am close.
Knit and Natter went well yesterday, lots of chat and plenty of knitting and some crochet. One of our group is knitting up little bits of yarn into a "paper chain" It is delightful and something that appeals to me, one for the future.
Tomorrow is (so far) a free day and weather permitting I will get some garden jobs done, even if it is just getting pots and seed trays ready.
I think that I have reached the end of the news so will go and get the kettle on.

I would like to see the paper chain. What does she do with it when finished?
ReplyDeleteI will ask here next week, I really fancy having a go at that.
DeletePizza sounds just fine to me! Actually I have a couple of stews going right now, beef for Alex and chicken for me. The house smells lovely! I'm envious that you are starting seeds!!!
ReplyDeleteIf I close my eyes and think hard I can almost smell your stews.
DeleteFingers crossed about the cast. Sounds like your going to be busy one way or another. I need to get into the garden and sort some bits, oh and muck spread!
ReplyDeleteI am off out there as soon as the dog are walked.
DeleteThe weather changed here yet again and another storm hit bringing snow, sleet, hail and rain. I am a tad envious of you getting started on the garden.
ReplyDeleteIt is only going to be a tidy up session for now, it is well overdue.
DeleteOnce again temperatures are well below normal, the wind is howling and I am glad I have leftover Lazy Cabbage Roll casserole to put in the oven for supper.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I really need to know what lazy cabbage roll casserole is. It sounds intriguing, I make cabbage rolls but have never heard of them in a casserole.
DeleteI love a short shopping list too!

I am now ready to meal plan and see if I can whittle it down even more.
DeleteShort shopping list here this week too. We really need to dig out old stuff from the freezer and use it up this month.
