Salad

Rumour has it that it may be cool enough tomorrow to actually put the oven on. Today was over 33°C so definitely no oven

There's that food rainbow you do so well!

Down in the low teens and feels like 8°F here. I should bake something!

We may be in apple and rhubarb crumble tomorrow if it is as cool as they suggest it maybe.

Made Austrian Beef Stew with Paprika and Caraway over polenta, green beans with EVOO, walnuts and dried cranberries. I used the Hungarian Paprika (regular and hot, the recipe used both) we bought this past summer in Hungary. Delicious. I loved the finishing fresh dill.

That looks really nice, yum!

Some peppermint creams
Itsu Crystal Rolls (like mini spring rolls made of a mesh rice paper).
Gluten free Samosas
Vegan Cheese and Biscuits
Half an orange twirl
Prawn cocktail and avocado
BBQ flavour chicken drumsticks
Half a bag of prawn crackers
Six macarons
Chicken Wings
Calamari

I think that is a record amount of food for me, now for just one “waffer thin mint”

I'll gladly trade you 15 degrees (F). It was -6 when I woke up this morning. I just ate some very custardy French toast. Hot foods only for us, please bring on the warmth from the oven!

Last night we had burgers on my sourdough brioche buns that were quite good. I made the dough and only cooked 2 of them (the remainder of the dough is in the fridge) because they undoubtedly taste so much better fresh! Tonight I am making meatball subs so I will form 2 of the buns into a sort of hot dog shape for that. I will try to remember to take photos!

Puggles I used this recipe:

Half an orange twirl

Your discipline in only eating half is, admirable; extraordinary; unbelievable.
I'd have snaffled the lot!

I had serious plans of eating at least a bit of everything I’d bought and didn’t want to fail my mission

Pot roast, mashed potatoes (sour cream, butter, and chives added), au jus, steamed baby spinach, and crescent rolls.

Snack time
Spicy mayo had quite a chilli kick.

This is the most unnatural shade of pink and yellow. No wonder TVC couldn't eat it.
