Message: <blockquote data-quote="BibaBee" data-source="post: 1959811" data-attributes="member: 479239">[USER=455169]@shelley262[/USER] God, it's been ages since I've had a cheese and wine evening.  I'm very envious! [USER=193971]@ianpspurs[/USER] I'm loving the sound of the beef stew with star anise.  Going to have to give it a try. I love beef shin and ox cheek.  I'm a big fan of short rib too.I'm a self-confessed kitchen gadget addict and I'm sorely tempted by the IP after seeing the posts on here.   I just wish I didn't have to spend money on a new microwave....it's so boring!  I mostly use it to heat up leftovers! Anyway, this is today's smorgasbord of delights.....Breakfast:  Yes, you guessed it, chia pudding. Raspberry bakewell flavoured - added almond butter, vanilla extract and almond extract. Served with a few raspberries and flaked toasted almonds.  Usual fresh coffee with cream. I'm going to have a bash at the coconut milk version of the chia pudding for tomorrow. Lunch: Leftover frittata from last night with homemade coleslaw.  A couple of fresh Ottolenghi Swiss LC cookies fresh from the oven with an almond milk cappuccino with splash of cream. Dinner: Cottage pie with celeriac mash (with cheese, butter and a couple of spare egg yolks knocking around) and broccoli.   Small piece of Earl Grey HC Supermilk. Lots of hot decaf tea.We're both feeling anxious tonight as my other half is back at the Eye Hospital for treatment for maculopathy tomorrow.   It always comes around so quickly (every 4 weeks <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />), but at least the treatment seems to be working. You'd think it would get easier, but every time he is terrified. Less about the injections, more about the potential for bad news.  It's really tough for him.  At least I've got a portion of Cottage pie tucked away for tomorrow night, as I know I won't feel like cooking when we get in.</blockquote>
