stuffed courgette, made yesterday and reheated. Nicer today as slightly undercooked before. Carrot "rice". Well grated carrot fried with nigella seeds. Whatever you want to call it.
There is a whole kilo of carrots in my fridge and am obviously not going to be able to eat all before they start going off. The carrot "rice" was an experiment.
Made lemon and almond shortbread
@Rachox. No almond flour, but ground almonds and an extra tbs of butter seemed to work. Now - if I could just stop eating them.
@annabell1 glad to read you got some sleep.
@Krystyna23040 thank you. Am currently making an effort with meals. Not sure how long that will last though. And Yes Emailing amusing videos is contributing to improving morale. We all need upbeat stuff at the moment.
@DJC3 thanks for hugs.
@maglil55 good to know you are getting better, it has been a long haul.
@PenguinMum top of the daily list
KEEP BUSY.
Although it's not difficult, there is always something needing doing.
Today moved and sorted a couple more boxes of stuff out if the living room. It's almost tidy now.
Put in several rows of seeds. Went for a completely illegal bike ride. I need to increase my control and stamina if I am ever going to be able to get to a supermarket. Can now manage to signal turning left. Turning right still a bit dodgy. Good thing the roads are almost empty.
We put up a summer house? gazebo? Last year. It has six panels which we painted. One of them is in terrible state and peeling off. Others are fine. Am assuming failure of preparation somewhere along the line and attempting to repair the damage.
Then there is the vegetable mountain. I riced cauliflower, fried mushrooms and leeks. Froze it all.
Also made lemon and almond shortbread
Discovered there are bees nesting in the chimney so had to have a fire tonight. Felt a bit guilty, but no alternative. Heard them humming, opened the door and bees came flying out.
