Lunch was very good pub food. Great decor and very friendly service.
Wife bruschetta and a bowl of fries.
They had blue cod on menu
I had that with extra goodbye sauce.
Fries and coleslaw. Didnt touch coleslaw as it was way too coarse for me.
Cod was amazing. 29 def c outside so air con full blast all way home.

Wife decided to invite 15 of her old school friends for (early) dinner on Thursday. We've also been working on fixing the garden. All of a sudden, the ***T hits the fan and she's gone into Energiser Bunny mode. "gotta do this, and that, gotta fix this, that and the other, gotta, gotta, gotta..."
Me? I tend to do one thing at a time. Too many years in Corporate to try and resolve all the problems at once, because I know that never happens.
Zipped off early, bought all the veg, the Basmati, the herbs and the chicken for Thursday; the only thing missing is the shrimp, which will arrive (on a motorbike) tomorrow. Made some ghee, did some confit tomatoes with Indian spices, made 15 portions of Gulab Jamun, made some cheesy shortbreads, cut up the cauliflower for pakoras, set out the spices for the other dishes... tomorrow will be a breeze compared to today.

There is a sauce in the US Deep South called "comeback sauce," but I've never heard of "goodbye sauce."

I'm guessing that "Comeback" sauce gets to you about 3am.
Goodbye sauce - you never find out what happened.

Lunch and evening meal yesterday.

Just remembered I 'ate' out yesterday. Sorry notice, so it was a protein shake whilst driving... no picture.

Evening meal, well, it doesn't look great I have to confess. But it tasted great!

Curried Cauliflower, Pea & Dill soup

Lunch today looks a bit better!

Toast with tahin pekmez and separately, plum butter

And then because I was still hungry, I had some fruit.

Watermelon, fresh apricot, kiwi fruit, red plum and passionfruit with homemade soy yoghurt.

My lunch today, ham salad with mayo, added the 330ml can to try and give a size guide.

Introduced my grandson to a chili omelet with sauteed onions, green peppers, and jalapenos.

He drained it as fantastic

Have a bit of prep cooking to do today so asked Mr SSOAP to pick up something for lunch.
He didn’t deliberately go full orange on it but if he had he would have won

Breaded chicken, garlic sweet potatoes and carrot and swede mash.
I told him they were fine choices as everyone knows orange food can only be surpassed by beige
