I'm miles behind yet again. I got caught up in tutoring grandson for the first round of senior 3 assessments. Far from easy when he was grieving the loss of his beloved pet dog. Then had to encourage grandson out for his birthday, younger grandson was competing again (he won all his races), and then I had to try to get organised for the annual "jolly" with all the ex workmates & spouses. We've since been on said "jolly" which requires a couple of days "recovery!" It was Stirling this year, so I took my car (thankfully) as I'd forgotten how steep the streets of Stirling are! Managed most of Stirling Castle but I forgot to take photos of meals out. The 1/2 lobster and filet mignon was my meal for grandson's birthday. It was one of the specials, and it was fabulous! I've also had a few of these SRSLY wraps with various toppings. Black garlic chicken, peri peri chicken, thinly cut steak.....always lettuce, tomato, sometimes avocado and a choice of peri peri mayo or garlic mayo.
While away, I had a pigeon breast one night to start, a rather nice pate another (took my own LC crackers). I did have the good old steak standby as a main one night. A chicken Balmoral was another (as they had GF haggis to stuff it with). Can't remember anything else as copious amounts of wine were consumed
Today - back to cooking
B. TAG and 2 slices of SRSLY toast with roast pork and savoury cheese. Benecol Dairy Free.
L. Nothing - back to swimming training with youngest grandson.
D. Usual campari and soda. I made chicken cordon blue (wrapped with bacon not crumbed). We both had a cobette and cauliflower cheese, and mushroom sauce. A little chocolate pot (haven't had one for ages).
Yesterday, I had a lot of rushing about. Took hubby to football (and returned for him later), got shopping done, grandson here to get more maths done and a review of Wilfred Owen's - Dulce et Decorum est. On a Saturday??? Not much time for eating. Usual TAG in the morning and cold cuts with tomatoes and coleslaw later. I even had a gin and soda.
That's about all I can remember. I'll have to be better behaved now! One week until my October rest from schooling.
