BBQ this evening with meat courtesy of Hindles. Can't remember having a BBQ in March before in this country.

We have a free Hello Fresh box this week. The ragu bake yesterday was bland but the sweet and sour chicken today was good.

Queens was, as delicious as usual, but again they messed up my salad... Is it so hard to belive that although I don't want Iceberg Lettuce, I still want cabbage, onion, tomato & cucumber....


Last time I just got hated iceberg, this time no salad at all... Missing my 5 a day....

We also ate outside in the breeze house.

Salmon, baked potato and salad.

I say ‘We” , husband didn’t want a baked potato because he said he needed to lose weight and cut down the carbs. So he just had salmon and salad.
We had a debate (again) because I don’t think carbs are the enemy, part of a balanced diet, it’s what you put on the carbs that make it fattening etc.

So the upside is, he forgoed a healthy potato at 180 calories, low saturated fat, low salt, then gets hungry and eats nearly a whole packet of Walkers sensations Thai sweet chilli peanuts, high fat, high salt, total calories about 600.

Hey ho.

Chippy tea here too!

We went on a wild goose chase to pick up a vintage safe I thought would make an amazing side table / talking piece... Turns out it was a meter squared and weighed about a tonne... Note to self - check the dimensions next time...

We did however get a chippy out of it so not a completely wasted trip!

I've finally just had the chicken soup that was defined for today's lunch.

The menu was decided very early on this morning, when the tin that I opened to replenish breakfast comestibles turned out not to be grapefruit after all.

Only because the carer thinks now he's had his jab he can't cook & should have the night off..

Posh dogs in Brioche rolls, hash brown waffles & breaded garlic mushrooms.

No shame in not cooking if the alternative is EoO.

Tomorrows is roast pork, roast spuds, carrots,cabbage, (for me) yorkies, mint and apple sauce, id have those with every meal if poss. And some nice gravy. I spoil that lad.

The OH is away for a weekend shortly (going on a bushcraft course and sleeping outside is allowed apparently) and as he hates Chinese I have already planned to have one. Is EoO the best place to go?

 

[littleme]

I don't know if it's the best, it's right on the doorstep. We enjoy the food from there. I have a very fussy 30yr old here. If the food was rubbish, he wouldn't eat it x

I'd say it's easily the best in Stafford.

Taking a stroll down to Viceroy in about an hour to pick up tonight's tea.

Collection has now been changed to delivery because of some nobhead with a match on the Common.

Have to wait an extra half hour but not the end of the world, give more time to drink wine.
