Hope you are enjoying the remainder of your weekend and that everything that needs to go well will do so!

good morning all

3.9 today

probably because I didn't test when I originally got up to the bathroom early. I shuffled downstairs to see if mum's little dog needed out (she's visiting overnight) and found mr. gee had got there before me and was out with the dog so I brazenly just went back to bed and tested when I got up again.

Making Sunday dinner today, black pudding stuffed chicken wrapped in smoked streaky bacon, easy and tasty. Going to try out seasoned cauliflower slices baked alongside the chicken and am pondering some kind of cream cheese and/or greek yoghurt with a touch of garlic sauce (maybe, maybe not) on the side to add a bit of a different texture. Roast spuds for mr gee and mum and more of the cauli for me. Probably a bit of brocolli too for some colour contrast.

Hope you are enjoying the remainder of your weekend and that everything that needs to go well will do so!

Thanks @DJC3 I may even stray off of my nice little homestead for the City today in search of Frecnh Vanilla Coffee man. Very rarely go into Cambridge these days as I begrudge the parking fees. Tend to go to John Lewis sale in January and Cau for steak and Malbec. The large Waitrose and M and S food store are out of town so we do visit those just to be sociable. I know my sons have worked on bars at this event so we shall see what those urban dwellers are like en masse (I was actually born in Cambridge and all my mother's side of the family are from there). This event sounds as though it may be interesting

It’s lovely weather for a country fair too, and you’ve earned a day off after your gardening yesterday

Thanks @DJC3 It was a really nice day with plenty of steps. Big downer was the £10.90 parking fee I bought Mrs Ianp some Suffolk Gin and artisanal faggots as you do. I have some elk sausages which I am assured only have elk meat and pork fat. Originally I was just going to have a pedometer and chest heart rate monitor for father's day/birthday but on the way out we tasted some of this and Mrs P forced a bottle on me - I am too much of a gentleman to refuse

I also munched on one of the biggest and tastiest bags of pork scratchings I have ever come across. The same stall had scotch eggs the size of softballs for those who know how big those are. Nearly forgot the point of the visit - we found the French Vanilla Coffee stall and now they do have a website and take cards

Gin and elk sausages - a very successful day!
Ouch! re. Car park cost though Is the coffee flavoured with vanilla extract? What makes it so special? I’ve seen you post about it before.

@DJC3 Not sure what their beans are flavoured with. We use vanilla extract in our filter pot but their's is another level delicious and no one else comes close to theirs.
