What's on your menu today

its baking as we speak!

Paracetamol, cough medicine, vit C, multivit + coffee, toast (Tesco's super seeded bread) and possibly a breaded chick thing later with green beans.

I had a 'breaded' chick thing once but she wouldn't serve beans - she asked me 'did you bring your own beans'?

Trying to run down the contents of the freezer to allow for a defrost.

Found some pieces of lamb neck so, lamb stew today.

Cock Broth for people under the weather

Use a red cock, not too old. And then beat him to death, and when dead pluck him and quarter, and bruise all the bones. Place cock in an earthen ware bowl and add various herbs, fennel,  parsley, violet leaves , aniseed seeds, mace, liquorice. Quarter pint of rosewater,  pint of white wine, and two or three dates. Cover with dough and put the pot in a pan of boiling water for 12 hrs. serve when cool.

Salt and pepper baps today,filled with slices of smoked roast turkey, and for me thick slices of onion, for 'Er indoors the same except that she will have sliced tomato, I will have a couple of tomatoes on the side.
