Blue skies. Time for a walk

Bob is going to the Vet this afternoon, as he has some bite marks on his back, just above this tail. I do not think this is a bite from another cat, as it is two puncture holes, about 5mm in diameter, and 5mm apart.

Goodness knows. I wouldn't rule it out though - punctures from cat bites can get very big very quickly. Fingers crossed for Bob xxx

Spatchcock time!

Not only that sometimes I cook Tandoori Chicken and you need to remove the skin before marinating and also the feet and wingtips (they burn easy) before placing on a wire rack over a roasting tin and giving it 40-45 minutes in an oven set to 'flat out'

Grey, still and comparatively mild here chez Casa Reynard.

This morning, I have de-quarantined the shopping, taken down and put away the Christmas decorations since it it 12th Night, and won an auction on the Bay of E.

Almost time for lunch - soup and sandwiches methinks.

Today is the day also for King Cake if you are French/Cajun American, where the King Cake is made, and a little baby Jesus is put in it when the cake is frosted. If your piece of cake has the Bebe,or Feve, you have to front the costs for the Mardi Gras party.

Bad luck to take them down after today. You'd have to leave them up for the rest of the year, to avoid it.

I still have thick ice and snow on my trees here.

I can confirm it is still there albeit I only saw it briefly.

Since the light snowfall this morning, we have had bright sunshine for most of the day. Looking at the forecast, next week is going to be warmer - up to 7ºC on Monday, woohoo!

Bored. Work is very quiet. Stuff needs doing but waiting for others to pull data together before we can work on it. Everyone seems quiet TBH. Might pack up early and cook an early tea. Got a yellow sticker of a big piece of fillet beef - should have been £30, reduced to £20, so sliced it up into individual fillets !
