TONIGHT`S DINNER

Very lazy dinner here tonight, it's Ikea meatballs, mashed spuds, gravy and two veg.

I'd really really really love an Indian takeaway, but the really good Indian doesn't deliver and anyway the calories!

Enjoy your moussaka Galen. You've got us GNs if you feel like a chat.

M&s count on us moussaka for one

Can't come all the way to Leicester and not have an Indian. Daughter & partner are going out tonight while they have us to babysit, so a take away is on the cards.

We are having braised sausage and mash tonight but I'm beginning to wonder what is in the sausages!

All this talk of roadkill has quite put me off my stuffed pork fillet!!!!

Over the course of our 3 hour drive yesterday we could have collected enough fresh roadkill to keep us in meat for a couple of weeks.
Probably a couple of dozen pheasants and rabbits, one deer and various other nondescript creatures. Not sure about the fox and badger, not seen them on the roadkill top 10 list. On a different journey we came across a pile of leeks that had dropped off a trailer - enough for a game stew.

Pork chop, celeriac mash and cabbage - quite boring really. But I made an apple pie with custard and I have 2 helpings and now feeling totally stuffed and pig-gish

Himself had smoked mackerel fillet with horseradish sauce and a salad.

#I had a chicken kiev with salad and chickpeas.

very nice too.

Throughly enjoyed

Toby Carvery turkey, beef, stuffing, roast potatoes and parsnips, carrots, caulifower, onion, horseradish sauce, bread sauce, cranberry sauce, gravy for £5.99. Decided I couldn't be arsed cooking tonight.

It wasn't really roadkill though was it? then it would have to be "Pompa does Bear Grylls"

Cordon Bleu Roadkill for beginners.

How's that for a title?

I can see the TV series already - pompa does Valentine Warner

I had a sandwish with sausage and butter :D

Belly pork slow roasted on a bed of veg mixed with lots of garlic to which you add a WHOLE bottle of wine!! If I can still stand up afterwards, I'll report back!!

Just for a change I had a significant input into tonight's dinner. We had a pheasant casserole, I got the job of boning out the pheasants and removing shot.

Last night's dinner included an experiment - I had loads of celery (I planned to make celery soup at one time and never got round to it)- anyway needed to use it up so I googled recipes with celery not expecting to find anything other than soup or Waldorf, but thank you Mr Fearnley-Whittingstall for your delicate and delicious recipe of Celery Gratin. It was very well received by the family when served with roast chicken, roast potatoes and glazed sweet carrots.

Tonight's dinner is bangers and mash ... Gonna taste divine because I'm not cooking it

Strong not string.

Toasted tea cake, banana, yoghurt and flaked almonds and a tiny mouthful of iced sponge cake plus a nice string cuppa.

We had bangers and mash out today at lunchtime yummy.

Tonight was comfort food night Heinz Tomato Soup with crusty tomato bread and soft white rolls - it was good

Churros! DiL and I had some really good ones two years ago at the Hyde Park Christmas funfair! Sadly, without the hot chocolate.

Well don't be complaining when you gain 4lbs.

Yer own fault!

Could be offset by wine, which is healthy

Yeah! I can live on those for four days!

jings churros are just elongated doughnuts!

Deep fried cakes, sprinkled with sugar, then dipped in hot chocolate

Very nice.
