Of course!Has Covid crossed your mind?
But with two negative tests with 3 days in between testing (first test on the second day I felt off, second test a couple of days later) I'm pretty sure it's just a nasty cold.

I've been getting brandy cream in Sainsburys but most of the supermarkets will have it in now for Christmas. Sainsburys have compounded the issue - I got an expresso martini cream this weekOoooh. The brandy cream sounds delish. Was it shop bought (if so, which), or was it a little something you pulled together yourself?
(I'm working my way through a batch of home made clotted cream - also addictive!)
Oh yes!! Very much an Arrrgh moment while Hubby looks smug.Oh no!
Make borscht with the beetroot, plenty of recipes on the net for it.I found a bunch of uncooked beetroot in the basket. I remember asking Neil to get them for a specific recipe I wanted to try but I can't remember what it was. I have absolutely no idea what to do with them.

Cooking them whole as a veggie is good as well.
Then don't eat it and give it away, or feed to someones chickens/guinea pigs.The trouble is, I just don't like beetroot

You have enough of a hard time eating as it is, choose foods you do like and forget about the beetroot!
Thanks to you and @DJC3 for the replies. I watched Saturday Kitchen too but wow that is a LOT of sugar. Maybe a version with a little spice bag and some Diet Lemonade added to a mug of wine might be the way to go after all. Will report back after experiments.I believe, that in the Uk alcoholic drinks don't have to displays ingredients or nutrition information and many of them have huge amounts of added sugars, mulled wine being one of them.
On a slight tangent on Saturday kitchen yesterday they were making variations on hot chocolate one of which was a mulled wine hot chocolate. Turns out, when I found the recipe on line , there is 400g (weight) of sugar added to a bottle of wine with spices to make the mulled wine, then 500g (weight) of dark chocolate stirred into it. No wonder it was the tasters favourite!
Cook just a little of it alongside something you know you like to give it a try! That way you won't be without food if you don't like it, and if you do like it you can use the rest for a real meal.I'll give the beetroot one try - just cook it and eat it and it will either be a no no or a yes yes.

The trouble is, I just don't like beetroot - ever since, at the age of 4 I was forced to sit and eat it, along with undressed lettuce and Spam when I had to stay for school lunch one day when my brother was in hospital with polio. Couldn't swallow it then and never tried again. Buying these this time was for a recipe which I presumably thought would be an improvement on just beetroot, so it would be an experiment to see if I could eat it. I don't think borscht is going to be the way for me. Might cook them with some onion and lemon, and maybe some apple to disguise the taste a bit.
So far, I've had some more smoked salmon salad with the last of the Marie Rose sauce.
Later it will be fish again - I have some haddock which Neil bought for me and which I will need to use up, so I'll shallow fry that in butter and have some salad with that.
Coincidentally, on Saturday I had a Tartar de Remolacha. It was basically grated cooked beetroot and orange onion, pressed into a ring m
ould, with a slice of goat's cheese on top. Quite delicious!
