Hi all,
I've got the hang of frying sausage. Two of us sat for a Cumberland sausage & veg dinner today. Yummy. We are both still alive.
I put a lid onto the frying pan, once the sausage was browned, so it simmered beautifully whilst the veg was cooking. I'm a two pan man now!
I will do the curry sauce on battered cod tomorrow, whilst on my own for practice, before stitching it onto anyone else. So Saturday is fish day, for a change this week. I'm so enjoying this. Thank you Pam.
Tattybye. |

You're a clever boy. Gold star.
I tend to do sausages and fish in the oven. Yummmm. So long as I don't forget slow cooked stuff, it looks after itself while I do other things. |

It's all such a learning curve Helen.
It's one thing to prepare myself like in the past where Pam has gone away on holiday or work & I pretend to be Greg Wallace for a couple of days, knowing that she will be back to sort me out. Surprise, surprise, I'm actually enjoying it. Armchair shopping choosing my grocery, hardly a day that I don't amend the order, but no big cockups yet.
Anyway, good night to you & all.

Big cockups need to be slow roasted in the oven with stuffing and smoky bacon. |

Hi all,
I'm hoping to resume full duties from this coming Wednesday, the 1st July. Forum & everywhere else.
I can't say back to normal, as my normal is a new normal. Pam's teddies don't answer back, they never cuddle me, they just sit there. That's my task to overcome. Visitors coming or me visiting is so enjoyable & much appreciated, but I'm on my own, well nearly. Puss talks to me & I have a cuddle with her. She's hopeless at cookery! |

Hi all,
All done & will be dusted tomorrow.
Back to being an out of work accountant. That's about the only thing that is "normal".
Love to you all. I don't consider June as a bad month. The joy of knowing peace that passes all understanding, is what I have. Also, my ICWA letters are not just letters. They have worked well a decade following on from my official retirement. Who could ask for anymore! CARRY ON COVENTRY.

You're a champ. I spend most of January putting off my accounts and being a grump because I still have to do them. |

Hi all,
A message to my friend MR.
Forget rhino horn, just have a peek at my Sunday lunch. I wasn't home till 1pm. By 2pm my dinner was eaten.
Cod & chips with curry sauce.

Oh my.... I like fish, and I like curry..... but ne'er the twain shall meet! Or am I missing something special that just needs to be tried to be believed? |

Oh yes, Rob.
Ask our colleague MR, who introduced me to such at Crewe.
We went all the way there for just fish & chips with curry sauce. That was a better spot for me than any old steama. |

Hi all,
A variation on a theme.
I so enjoyed my cod & chips with curry sauce on Sunday, my taste buds were budding for the same chunky battered cod, but with veg & curry sauce.
Well, honest, it was jgtciytciytckhgvjytxhtrxhcjgfy beautiful.
Our local corner shop lady does pre-ordered Asian food, that is beautiful to take home. She asks whether we want the food cooked as a curry, or the sauce added. I like the taste of the fish & the veg, so biting into one of those pearl potatoes with the fresh taste inside, but the curry on the outside, is divine. I had a work colleague of Asian origin, who preferred fresh veg that way. I don't think that I am going to starve, hey.
Please post comments about what I am doing. I'm learning. I never had cookery / domestic science at school, I never had a dolly either. I had Fido! |
