Day 3593 (31/10/2019)

We have slowly been going thru some boxes and have managed to clear some stuff, taking most of it to a charity shop but there is just so much more to do.




Day 3592 (30/10/2019)

In the office not achieving as much as I need to and its really winter now :-(

In the evening made some nice pizzas with the low-dough bases.

 





Day 3591 (29/10/2019)

We had just sat down to a nice breakfast when we got a call to say the dishwasher was being delivered in 45minutes, which was a few hours earlier than booked, so we had to rush around clearing the cupboard so they could fit it.

They were really good fitting it but I was looking forward to my breakfast :-(


But it is really nice to have a dishwasher again.



Day 3590 (28/10/2019)

I had a meeting in the morning and then it was a bit of a made rush to get to a blood donor session.


I was glad of the chance to lie down in peace and then enjoy some tea & biscuits.


Then it was a relax at home afterwards.



Sunday 27 October 2019

Day 3588 & 3589 (26 & 27/10/2019)

It was a very wet Saturday, so I did something in the office then we went out to buy a new dishwasher.

In the evening I made a nice Mexican, with cauliflower rice.




I may have had too much to drink, as we sat down to watch telly and I woke up about 3 hrs later :-)

On Sunday it was drier, so I tided the garden.



And made a nice dinner, even doing Brussels sprouts with bacon lardons.

   

Very tasty :-)





Day 3587 (25/10/2019)

Another day in the office.

We have been without a dishwasher for a week, since the element went and it stopped heating the water to wash with. I called a repair man but it didn't go well :-(





Day 3586 (24/10/2019)

Busy in the office but the highlight of the day was a very nice courgette spaghetti bolognese.


Really tasty and healthy but would have been better with a nice bottle of wine :-)






Day 3585 (23/10/2019)

Another day busy in the office but not achieving as much as I wanted, or needed to do.

Saturday 19 October 2019

Day 3581 & 3582 (19 & 20/10/2019)

Looking forward to a bit of time to relax this weekend. Saying that I got up early ish and did some work in the office and then tidied the garden for the winter, putting some plants & herbs away in the little greenhouse thing.


   

And only cut myself a bit pruning the rose bush :-(


I made a nice curry in the evening.




An a nice pork chop dinner on Sunday, with baked apple for afters. 
 

 





Day 3580 (18/10/2019)

It was an early start as I had to keep a train to London for a meeting.

It didn't start well, when my wife nearly knocked a cyclist over, then I realised I had bought my train tickets from Paddington to Taunton not Taunton to Paddington luckily I explained I was an idiot and as I was a First Class Idiot they gave me a free First Class pass for the day.


Then off to London for a meeting, which went quite well.


Then I had far too much wine at the first class lounge at Paddington before going home.

 




Day 3579 (17/10/2019)

A busy day in the office and then out for a pensioner's meeting in the evening.

Busy in the office and made some more lo-carb brownies, with added walnuts :-)

Saturday 12 October 2019

Day 3574 & 3575 (12 & 13/10/2019)

Back home and time to catch-up with work.

I made us some nice & healthy pizzas in the evening.

 

Then we went off to The Brewhouse to see Mark Watson, who was very funny. 

 

On Sunday I was doing roast beef so decided to make some homemade creamed horseradish, from the plant that we had been growing all year.


Slightly disappointed at the actual usable amount of horseradish.

 
 

Which ended up about the size of 2 or 3 cloves of garlic. 


But it ended up OK and quite tasty. 


Then did a lovely roast beef. 



 And a cauliflower & broccoli cheese.
 
     

Yum Yum Yum :-)

 

With a creme brulee for afters :-)
