Dinner: Chip Sandwich / Cheese on Toast

Museli & Cornflakes

Chip Buttie

Lunch : A late affair today, after a shopping trip for essentials. We had to join a queue for about an hour (see below). The omelette was a use up of the smoked haddock from yesterday. Check online for the recipe, basically, it is haddock poached in cream and milk, made into a sauce with egg yolk, added to whipped egg white, which is then added to an omelette and sprinkled with cheese

Dinner : The omelette was eaten late enough to only need a light supper. Well, just a few chips for you know who!!!

333 Days after Lockdown - 20th February, 2021

Tartiflette Pizza - A thing of beauty This pizza was so good we had to add it to the blog - It has been quite a while since we posted. Almost a whole year since lockdown On another good note Maggie and I have both had our first Pfizer vaccination. So happy, but astonished that some people, including some that we love and hold dear are refusing or even doubtful. Just do it, for everybody We saw the recipe on a James Martin show - it is by Richard Bertinet. Hert is the link to the recipe . There are 2 recipes included on the link, both Tartiflette based We adapted it slightly to cook in our new OONI KARU wood-fired pizza oven.

And they bought their very cheeky little chappy with them 'Murphy' Before posting this I discussed whether I may add the post that Karen added to her Facebook and she kindly agreed, wanting to spread the message. Many of our friends and family have gone through or indeed are still dealing with the disease. The message is simple, even now with Covid-19 in our midst, be aware of your body and make sure to take advantage of any health screening you may be offered This is a long post, but please do not skip this part and go straight to the details of lunch at the bottom Karen - It’s been a while since I’ve given everyone an update and this is because healing from the lung operation has been complicated due to an infection and also the results weren’t as I had hoped. During the operation the...

Roasted in the Monolith, basted with Rosemary & Garlic Oil. Served pink. Hasselback went perfectly again.
