What a treat for the eyes and the tastebuds lm sure. However l do like a culinary challenge so here is my lunch today ! A slice of 3day old homemade (base and all) pizza. Im a bit of a whizz at pizzas so while my guardian is away in Sweden visiting her mother, l made a couple of the very finest examples.
Of course after three days things have gone a bit stale so here is the solution....olive oil and a frying pan....result hot pizza with a crispy base, delish
l did have to remove the "floret" of broccoli as it was rather soggy, other than that..... TRIUMPH !

Well l thank you for that, and it goes without saying that l am envious of your Christmas cake, l'm pretty sure if l made one it would turn out "sad"as my old mum used to say

go on give it a go , i try and cook one cake a week as it saves buying a mass produced one that is full of additives etc etc

Sounds like a plan and l'm with you 100% on mass produced stuff, wouldn't touch it with a barge pole. Anyway there really is no need here because there are two markets a week within 10km of where l live and all the stuff is sourced locally and woe betide any trader that sells stuff not grown or made in the Lot

Nice week away in the Dales, didn’t bring the bike this week as I didn’t fancy the black ice, big mistake as it’s been really mild this week.
