I had a
lovely weekend, shopping and catching up with friends. It is wonderful to be
able to go out and enjoy someone else bringing food to you in the sunshine. It
is also good to be able to tentatively make plans to visit places and meet
friends. This weekend we have a barbecue to look forward to.
The
weather
Around
the House and Garden
I will be
planting some seeds, I know I am a bit late for some of the things I had hoped
to plant but I have been a bit lazy all round and I need to give myself a kick
up the backside and sort myself out. I have fallen behind with the zone
cleaning of the rooms. I have written a to do list for this week which should
be manageable.
On the
menu
I did not
do a menu plan last week as I was frustrated with Craig for not wanting what
was on the plan so I left it to him last week. Needless to say it was a
disaster and we ended up eating more convenience food than I liked and later as
he would have to buy what he needed. Craig admitted defeat so I am back with a
menu plan, but I doubt if Craig will allow me to stick with it. I might just
tell him to sort himself out if he feels like it.
Monday –
Honey Chilli Chicken
Tuesday-
Salt and Pepper Chicken wings and loaded potato skins
Wednesday –
Spaghetti Carbonara
Thursday –
Chicken Parmigana
Friday-
Liver & Onions
Saturday – Chinese takeaway with Brother in Law and Nephew
Sunday-
Barbecue at friends
It will be
nice not having to cook this weekend again. I think it is about time other
people got involved with the cooking.
What I
will do to relax
As I have a
lot to do around the house there won’t be as much time to spend relaxing though
I intend to make time. I have to finish the book for my Friday book club and I
still have about 100 pages left to read. I will also continue working on my
Courthouse step Knitted blanket.
What I
am watching
Our
Yorkshire Farm – I love watching Amanda and her family on their farm. The kids
are the stars (especially Sid and Clemmie). I could not however live as
remotely as they are.
The Great
British Sewing Bee – I doubt my skills will ever be up to the standard required
for appearing but it is a good way of learning.
Hope you
all have a good week.
Reading about planting seeds made me wonder if it's too late for ME to start some seeds indoors here in Michigan! hahahha I will have to go and get some as soon as I am out of quarantine! I'm at the end (at least I hope it is the end) of COVID. I miss the outdoors! Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your visiting friends again, we are still under lockdown here... it's been like that for almost a year with 2 short periods of a little visiting permitted. Have not seen my parents since before Christmas :(
ReplyDeleteGreat menu. Have a great week
