Day 5125 & 5126 (13 & 14/01/2024)

It;s the weekend and still working whilst trying to relax a bit. Inspired by a Joe Weeks recipe I made a chicken satay and shredded chilli beef for dinner. 

It was very tasty and quite spicy but my wife still couldn't really taste it.

Due to my wife's Covid I didn't see my parents for breakfast. I did some work and  made a roast chicken dinner in the afternoon.  

Very tasty but I ruined the Yorkshire puddings by opening the over door :-(

And a nice glass of wine :-)

Day 5124 (12/01/2024)

My wife went back to work, as she was felling better but is obviously still full of Covid :-(

I went to the gym and did some work.

Had fish & chips in the evening.

Day 5123 (11/01/2024)

Still looking after my ill wife, working and going to the gym.

I only did a half session at the gym as I had a meeting with Dave at Costa.

In the evening I was under directions from my wife to make a meal she had already bought the ingredients for, so I had to make a spiced red lentil & rice with broccoli kitchari recipe but is unwell, so I was under orders to make it and it was quite nice, especially with the mango chutney & yogurt.

Day 5122 (10/01/2024)

Busy looking after my wife, working and going to the gym. 

Did meatballs in the evening. 

Day 5121 (09/01/2024)

Feeling like winter again, with work to do. I made brunch for me and my wife, who is full of Covid :-(

Then work & the gym.

Lunch then back to work. 

Thomas went off to watch the football, so I got dinner from the chip shop :-)

Day 5120 (08/01/2024)

Back to work & back to the gym.

It is freezing outside, feeling very wintery. 

My wife has had a cold for a few days and today when she came home from work she was complaining about loosing her sense of taste & smell and then tested positive for covid :-(

We had left overs for dinner and then carried on working.

Day 5118 & 5119 (06 & 07/01/2024)

 A weekend, to relax but with lots to do to be ready for Preston next month.

We had a nice brunch.

In the evening I did some nice pizzas.

I saw my parents on Sunday morning and then home to work and make dinner. I did a nice roast pork, with a fennel, onion, potato carrot & spinach in a creamy & Italian cheese sauce, which was very tasty.   

All really tasty :-)
