quote author=Cuilidh link=topic=10298.msg458046#msg458046 date=1755286424] Like Chookie a couple of days ago, I also managed a rare "me" day. Got some shopping done, hemmed several pairs of trousers and managed to sit and read a chapter or two of my current book. [/quote] Well done Marina. We are going through a very cold spell at the moment so I’ll be staying inside. A little cooking, Marmalade, and Bread and butter pudding. (I found some Panattone left over from Xmas.) The new hairdresser has a 31 TMX. She doesn’t use it much. I think she will try making some bread now. I’ll check her next week.

I’m silly but even now that I really don’t drink, I find a glass or two of port settles my panic when it’s very windy. It’s easy, cheap medicine.
I made a fruit loaf yesterday. I soaked the fruit in hot tea for several hours.
Nothing silly about that, Cookie. If it works, then it works and is better than suffering stress or tension during a storm.
I agree, do whatever helps. Chicken and mushroom pies.

DH and I went to the chemist, then we had visitors for the rest of the day. A kind, young man, that DH taught and built Model A speedsters with was one of the visitors. He kindly did the repairs to our shed roof after the storm the other night. DH had bought the replacement sheets but we couldn’t think of anyone we knew who was young enough to go clambering around on the shed roof. Fortunately he is only in his mid 50’s and still climbs on rooves. (Or do you say roofs now?)

My kind DH suggested fish and chips tonight. I think he may be tired of taking over dinner preparation part way through. 😀😀

Cookie my DD loves Burrata after having it in Italy, I love it but has to be a treat as too much cheese doesn’t agree with my sinuses. Roast veg salad ( might have brought this ) with two eggs . Easy meal after a big few days .
