    Made a lovely creamy mushroom sauce to go with chicken fillets and pasta for dinner. Made a soup with veg that needed to be used up, butternut squash, leeks, celery, carrot and onion and some soup mix to give it some body. Used ginger, cayenne pepper and coriander powder to give it a kick. Will do for the lunches tomorrow.

    WTF is a frozen fish and chips packet?? Actually that's a stupid question. I guess it's a frozen meal of some kind. Sounds awful. Sorry.

    I have the pork chops in the pan.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Grandeeod


    A real rough and ready meal tonight of pork chops, chips and beans. A big glass of bainne to wash it down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    Bag of chips from the chipper shared with Mr W, extra salt on mine. Eaten with a slice of bread and real butter, Heinz mayo and some scallion. Washed down with a glass of cider and followed by some dark chocolate.

    Lunch today was a Greek salad with quinoa and a humous/yoghurt dressing. It was really delicious!

    A boiled potato rescued from the pan of vegetables etc I was cooking for stew when the gas died...

    Been meaning to replace the spare, empty bottle for weeks. mea culpa

    Dragged both cylinders to the end of my drive ie the crossroads with a HELP! sign... Neighbour-ferryman has to pass when he next goes to the pier and no way will I disturb them at weekend.
    They have to carry them for me anyways.

    I have microwave, and toaster.

    When I was first here I was without power 5 months and gas stove 3 months. Have a small camping stove also so am fine. Just embarrassing!

    Well, it is my considered opinion that Supervalu ready meals are not a patch on Dunnes' and are considerably dearer!

    A disappointment but I will recover.... lol...

    I agree completely. SV is a very overrated place when it comes to certain foodstuffs. I think it has gone downhill over the last two years. Not nearly as good as it used to be. My local SV is a dump.

    Good to know you are so happy in life, it sounds idyllic.

    It must be amazing to see the changes in the landscape with the changes in weather we've had.
