Day 64-14 : Tuesday 26th May, 2020

Breakfast: Boiled Egg and Soldiers
Lunch: GI Bread rolls and Corned Beef
Dinner: Lamb Chops, Hummus, Chick Pea Salad, New Potatoes
Dessert: Local Strawberries & Clotted Cream

Breakfast: We have personalised Alexa to give a more personal message as an egg timer. We have been using Alexa as a timer but this seems to make it more interactive

Lamb Chop

Dinner in the garden
Dinner: Local Lamb cooked on the Baby Grill ( perhaps not the best name for it ), seared and seerved medium.

Dessert: Perhaps a little early for strawberries, they are from Bedingfield. Perhaps another week, just tasted a little fresh

Strawberries & Clotted Cream
Coffee:  We ordered 'Chit Chat' coffee from Paddy & Scott in April. It was not in stock at the time and so they sent a replacement of their flagship coffee 'Jerry Can'. The taste is good but we can't get it to the strength we like. A quick email to Paddy & Scott and they are happy to replace it with 'Chit Chat' which is now in stock.  With no charge even though we have used 2 bags.  And they are collecting it.  Perfect service, thanks. Loyalty does have dividends

Simple and easy - all the elements of Tartiflette the recipe is easy enough but you could do this easily even with shop-bought pizza dough Soften lardons / shallots / leek in a little olive oil Steam or boil a few new potatoes, cool and slice thinly Beat egg, creme fraiche or natural yoghurt or cream with a little grated garlic, sa...

131 Days After Lockdown : Sunday 3rd August, 2020

PUT YOUR POO IN THE POST  &  COP A FEEL What a lovely Sunday afternoon First visit from Damien & Karen since Karen's personal lockdown sometime ago.  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...

The stayathome journal is meant to show, with simple photographs, our daily meals during this period and perhaps some of the thinking behind the meal planning. Click here  or scroll down  to go straight to the posts.  Please Subscribe to get daily updates into your in-box We hope it will give a little culinary inspiration and look forward to any comments, suggestions or constructive criticism We will be adding to the other pages of the blog when possible We vaguely discuss our meals for the day and try to plan what we will try and do to use up any leftovers or make the most of what we have As tempting as it is this is not intended as a photo gallery for food but we will add photos whenever possible.  We will also add recipes in some form as and when time permits along with some of the thoughts of why we made those choices We were fortunate enough to do our monthly shop before the lockdown, however, we have not really struggled to find what w...
