Oh you poor thing. I had Aldi Toro Loco, a very tasty red.

Back to my childhood today with chip butties and dippy eggs (soft boiled).

Good idea pops...I think we'll have sausage, egg and chips and tinned tomatoes

"Dutch" pancakes today. I call them this as I first had a similar thing at a windmill museum near Amsterdam.

They are conventional English-type pancakes made quite thin and when the batter is first put in the pan it is sprinkled with chopped fried bacon and tiny cubes of cheese. I use extra mature Gouda for this. the pancakes are not turned over but allowed to cook until the cheese is pretty much all melted - you need careful heat control for this - I have a pancake machine which does this fine. Roll the pancake up and enjoy.

Roast citrus chicken ... chicken stuffed with sliced up lemons and clementines and roasted sat in a tray of orange, lemon and garlic.

Wholemeal baps filled with medium rare beef slices, and for me thick slices of onion, and for 'ER indoors, slices of tomato.

Tonight it will be trout pan fried in herb or garlic butter (after I have de-boned them), with Anya potatoes boiled in their skins and steamed Fine Green Beans.  I will also make some leek sauce to add extra moisture. 

P.S.  We purchased the Anya spuds, along with a variety of other veggie goodies for 39p each, from Sainsburys - on our way home on Boxing Day after attending A&E to get my hand attended to.  Bargain Basement!  :D

Just had a cordon bleu meal comprising two rounds of toasted granary bread spread with Kerrygold salted butter. One topped with two scrambled eggs - the other with baked beans. Accompanied by a glass of Solihull H2O de tap 2017.

Mushroom burgers today. Large chestnut or Portobello mushrooms fried in a small amount of butter, liberally seasoned - salt, pepper, herbs to suit. Slice of nice cheese on top, grilled to brown and served on suitable toasted bread buns. We sometimes have a modicum of bacon with them as well.

Roast lamb and mint sauce, with roast spuds carrots an sprouts today

Indian takeaway for me chicken naga and pilau rice with homemade nan bread.
Er indoors is outdoors today at a Christening so it's finger food for her.

The thought of eating fingers is revolting

Rib eye steak (not my choice) with rabbit food. sigh.

Rib eye is the most flavoursome of steaks
