Renovations and Rice

 


The wall is up, and it has stayed up.

This time they put it up in two halves, first the bottom, then the top ... not side by side halves or top then bottom!!  😄


This is the reverse of the same wall.

I bet you come to visit my blog for these riveting photos don't you, I am more than happy to oblige.  😁 


Here, have a bonus photo, the planned layout for the battening that Alan will be putting up on the inside of all the exterior walls of the bungalow over the course of the next couple of weeks.  This will have the extra insulation in each of the spaces before being plaster boarded over. 

We are doing this to raise the EPC rating as the bungalow had quite a low one to start with.  Hopefully by the time we are finished it will be much improved, even at the expense of the room sizes.  What with all this lining, and walls going up the space inside will be shrinking very quickly.

Alan will have to follow my lead and learn to live smaller.


I've been enjoying the pack of salmon that I bought over the Easter weekend. 

 I've eaten it differently each time.  This photo shows it as part of a quiche, served with roasted sweet potato mini wedges.  Yes, all the pastry edges of my quiche fell off when I was getting it out of the tray ...not that that matters in the slightest.  

Pastry is pastry is pastry and I love pastry.  💖

I had one portion of the salmon with leftover rice, peas and spinach.

One portion was had as that lunchtime salmon bun I showed on the last post, and the final one was served with a simple bowl of the roasted vegetables ... and a rather large dollop of mayo. So tasty, and it's really handy to have something in the fridge that gives you inspiration for simple but healthy meals isn't it.

Renovations and rice, you never know what I will be writing about next ... and neither do I. 😁
