Sorting the freezer drawers out the other day was a brilliant way of refreshing my mind to what was actually in there, and one thing I had forgotten about was my 'teacake style loaf' bought right at the beginning of July.
It made for a sweet and tasty breakfast. I don't usually go for overly sweet things but when tempered with a black coffee they go down well occasionally.
I wasn't overly hungry at lunchtime, so I thought I would have the remaining two fishcakes and the last of the 'swapsies' tomatoes from Alan.
My tea was almost an action replay of yesterday's but I thought I would add some of the roasted vegetables to the rice and peas and slice up one of the beetroots for a bit of freshness. It was a very tasty mix.
I'm keeping it short and sweet today as we are off for a meeting in Manchester to discuss Mum's ongoing health concerns with the Assessment Centre staff.

Great grub and I hope the meeting is very helpful. xx
ReplyDeleteIt was a tasty and satisfying, if simple day of food. Thank you. 🙂
DeleteThe only time I'm likely to eat anything sweet is at breakfast when I sometimes fancy a pain au chocolate or a danish pastry. Are you still watching the Kitchen Scrap? He's got really interesting and his editing can be so funny!!
ReplyDeleteYes, I love his videos, his editing and clips are spot on. 😀
DeleteGreat meals all day. Good luck in the meeting about your Mum-I went through this with my own Mum and it’s not an easy to do.❤️ Catriona
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely not easy, this is the third time in two years. ☹️
DeleteI find when it's very hot, I am not normally particularly hungry. Those meals look very tasty and simple to make. Sorry to hear that your mum's ongoing health needs are requiring meetings. Never an easy time.
ReplyDeleteLighter meals and lots of drinks are suiting me just fine in this little heatwave. 😀
DeleteWe have our fingers crossed that she will look after herself better when she is discharged this time. This is possibly her last chance for living at home on her own.
I do hope the meeting went well Sue for your Mum and systems have been put into place so your Mum can return back home♥ Also many thank to Fiona A for mentioning the Kitchen Scrap, new subscriber here:)
ReplyDeleteIt went very well overall and hopefully Mum should be able to go home next week with a good care package in place. The Kitchen Scrap is brilliant isn't it, Jake makes a really good job with his editing and it all makes for a really informative and entertaining video for anyone that enjoys cooking, especially wartime era food and rationing.

Great to hear about your Mum:) Very impressed with Jake, lovely chap
DeleteIn addition to peas, I often grate a carrot into the rice when I cook it; it's another way to add some vegetables into my meals.
ReplyDeleteI hope the discussions regarding your mother's care go well.
That's a great idea, I could have used my one and only carrot for that but I decided to save it to make some coleslaw. The meeting went quite well thanks. xx
DeleteYour meals always look delicious, Sue. I hope the meeting goes okay. Xx
