"What have you eaten" Parallel Chat

I'm feeling lazy today but I did get the new outside tap winterised because it's forecast to drop to -3 tonight. It'll probably be fine but I don't want to risk it!

I had the usual small breakfast and then some of the minced beef stew. Some of my sprouting broccoli thinks it's spring, so I had a few sprigs of that and some of the small leaves with the stew, it was lovely.

I'm not sure about tea, I might have something very light like cottage cheese and salad.
 
For tea I had cottage cheese with beetroot and chopped onion and a few poppy seed crackers. It was very nice.

My sungold tomato and new ace pepper have sprouted! Just waiting for the havana gold and hungarian hot wax chillies to germinate now, but they can take longer and I may not have had the heating mat hot enough for them so I've bumped that up a bit. When they're all up I will set up the lighting area for them to grow into mature plants. I think I'll use the little box room for that so I need to get it sorted now - I have already mostly decluttered it so I just need to rearrange and organise it properly.

My celery and celery leaf seeds have also sprouted, and all the salad leaves are still doing great so far.
 
The only problem is grating the cheese.
I confess to buying grated cheese and keeping it in the freezer for this kind of eventuality :oops:

Up a bit late again today, but hoping to have a productive day. Usual breakfast, no plans yet for lunch, I'll see how I feel later but I think I'll have the minced beef stew for tea.
