well as we are eating at about 6 ish this evening i will have a couple of bacon buttys waiting for you to fill a gap until dinner ![]()
Homemade Celery & GreenPepper soup for lunch with a couple of slices of Bread & Butter. Homemade Beef curry & rice tonight - Give hubby something to do while I take Taffy out for his walk 
Lunch… scrambled eggs on toast with mushrooms and chopped parsley…
Dinner… grilled lamb chops with garlic and rosemary/roast potatoes/peas/ cabbage and mint sauce.
Stewed Goosberries on their own.
Too late Kitty darlin’ - couldn’t wait that long - have bangers and mash on the stove as I write this.
Now come on, nobody HAS to eat if they don’t want to. I know I couldn’t and nobody could force feed me. 
Well, for the first time in ages I made a cottage pie for tea and enjoyed a third of it, to be going on with! Mindst, it was a reasonable sized one. 
I do agree with boiling rice with a touch of turmeric though. I do that regularly and it tastes gorgeous! Of course, it has to be Basmati rice. 
Lunch just a couple of slices of toast and marmalade.
Dinner at about 6 ish which will be
tomato soup, followed by cold meats, ham,turkey and roast beef, with a side salad and crusty bread and sausage rolls.
desert, raspberry cheesecake with a portion of fresh raspberries and double cream.
and a nice bottle of sparking wine to wash it down
Goodness Kitty, that is a banquet.
We went out for an early breakfast, so I didn’t want dinner until about 2pm. We had turkey breast stir fry, with noodles in black bean sauce. Hubby wanted some ice cream after, so we had a cornetto each. Still full up, so I’ll skip tea and have a couple of biscuits with my bedtime drink ;-).
it was very nice but i couldn’t manage it all, made sure i had a couple of glasses of wine though :-).
Oh Kitty darlin’!!! - what you had is just my ‘strarters’, forget the salad though - that’s just rabbit food). Had full Sunday roast yesterday and will be doing a chinese chicken stir-fry for lunch today.
Wow, being from the U.S. I don’t recognize some of the foods; others I recognize but they’re taboo in this house since hubby had his heart attack.
I like the sound of rice with tumeric on it - I will have to try that:)
Breakfast for me is always a bagel with butter AND peanut butter - lol
Lunch will be fresh stir-fried string beans, mushrooms, onions over rice.
I generally don’t eat supper this time of year as the horses don’t come in until around 7:30 PM. I can’t eat a big meal then go do chores without getting sick. I will generally put myself to sleep with a small container of yogurt while watching the 10:00 news.
Winter time they come in two hours earlier, so they get put up for the night, then we eat.
Julie darlin’ - I have a much better night-cap than Yoghurt - Brandy!!! - although I like mine as a ‘pick-me-up’ first thing in the morning - circa 06.00.
I used to do that until my inherited high blood pressure finally caught up to me - lol
In my adult youth, I always carried a flask of blackberry brandy on the fall trail rides. We did a lot of weekenders with the horses up in the mountains. Never knew when it was going to rain (a heavy mist would also work:) and a snort of brandy would warm you right up out on the trail:-D
I’ve sort of gotten used to the taste of yogurt - sort of–
Chicken, noodles and veg stir fry today.
(the lady next door told me she is having beef curry, with sponge cake for afters :-D)
She has her eye on my gooseberries :shock: but it will be gooseberry pie for us tomorrow 
Yoghurt is for breakfast in our house, with fresh fruit… tomorrow morning the fruit will be banana.
Chicken with lemon & black olives. Followed by the lovely banana-loaf recipe provided by uncle joe.
I must admit this is the one & only recipe I can not live without.
The banana-loaf with raspberries & cream!!!
Banana loaf gets made today and fed with a drop of brandy (ready for guests Monday), dinner is fish (haddock), chips and mushy. peas.
Jean and I visited a local Indian Restaurant yesterday lunch time and we both ate a Dosa (like a large Spring Roll) 1’ long !!!
I bet poor Jean has to go on a Diet after each visit to you lol lol.
I went to Aldi on Thursday evening and was delighted to see packets of Souvlaki mix so I bought three packets.
On Saturday I marinaded some of this onto pieces of diced steak, grilled it and it was absolutely deeeelish!
