Our Son was up this morning, brought our grandson with him, 11 months old, crawling everywhere, into everything and has just started to stand up. 😍

There is a golf course a couple miles away with a perimeter path of about 3 miles which is usually fairly snowfree when the streets are not. Took my Brompton with studded tires for a few laps and rode a bit over 10 miles, 1/2 with a 20 mph headwind and 1/2 with a 20 mph tailwind. Between the wind and the tires it was more work than 20 in the summer. Still, it was great to get a little ride in. Today the wind is between 25 and 55 mph so I will find other things to do. One of these will be buying some 2x4s to fashion a frame to hang a 95 lb horsemat from. These 4x6 3/4 " recycled rubber mats can make a good backdrop for archery targets so I don't skewer my neighbors when arching. I have an old recurve bow without sights so shooting it is kinda Zen. Very relaxing.
NN...feel any better with the metformin or is it too soon to tell? If my diet fails to curb my slide into diabetes I will join you, but I really hate to take any meds if I can avoid them as they all seem to have some unpleasant side effects. The blood thinners I was taking come to mind.
Be well and safe

A good question.
I normally get Aldi bog standard RL and enjoy it.
T'other week they only had this special, which is aged. Nice but not worth the extra cost.
But the sarnie was nice though🙂

Hopefully you'll continue with your bread making.I think I will have too
Maybe even try a new recipe, such as

Just don't give up!

If it would help, you could continue to bake your pies, post them to me, I will eat them for you, and tell you how nice they were

I'm sure there would be many takers on CC for NN's pies.

Up to now I'll cut out any sweet stuff, but I'll carry on making meat/curry pies ect and making bread as I don't like shop bread now, but I have to lower my blood sugar ASAP and get it under control and go from there.
